The way to freedom is a line,
straight or a meandering vine,
circling and entwines,
never to join the beginning.
Do not think to what came before,
gone to be left evermore,
in the path you score,
what happens in a river?
As troubled water flows it pounds,
eroding till what was left drowns,
tumbling til it washes down,
the stain of its memory.
The Path
the rock paves the way
for both the land and river
roll as directed
