Destination

by Lex la Dezerti - Leo - Not entered


we are sinners, we are saints,
we can only guess anymore.
we have only old scrapbooks
and clippings of hair
left from the past,
and the path ahead is strong
with the stench of the swamp,
but you must reach your destination.

we are criminals, we are cops,
we can only prophesize.
we have only billboard signs
to point the way forward,
and the stench from the weeds
littered on the gravel road
is rich and makes you dizzy,
but you must reach your destination.
