thriving lessons
life will shape
unshape or
remake you,
depending on
what you remember
or try so hard
to forget.
memory is a
traffic roundabout,
brain looped,
thinking, trying
to make sense,
looking for
an exit.
yielding, cautious,
rounding the curve,
dizzying choices,
moving to the right,
or choosing
to find out
what's left.
The middle-mix
of holding on
and letting go,
crunching gravel,
will it hold and set
or are you pouring
hope into a gray area?
move forward,
up the drive,
to excellent purchase.
build a house
with firm walls,
a solid roof,
a dry basement.
attach a four-season
expansively windowed
room to grow
because there is
no such thing as time
only change
and remembrance.
Time does not heal all wounds. Wounds require transformation. Unravel and reweave them into something you can use.
