Dark Passage

Dark passage.
From there
to here
to there.
Spitfire
journey.
Tumultuous
ride.
Deep
in the
shadows
undulation.
Ebbs and
flows
while
eddies spin.
Rocks and
bumps.
White
water rapids
splashing.
Holding tight.
Head
above water
thrashing.
Navigating
the vagaries.
Life’s
journey,
paddle
in hand.
Short
timer
battling.
Battling
the flow.
Life force
river
holds tight,
carries
away.
Waterfall’s
roar
ahead
deep plunge
awaits
to who
knows where?
Anyone’s
guess.
