Path of Least Resistance


Walking down a dilapidated pier
Toward an uneventful horizon
Save for a blooming ominous cloud
Spreading its wings over the horizon.

A cool breeze blows against me
Pushing me back from the edge
Circles spread out like pulses
Where a boy spits in the blue.

When all directions point forward
Saving grace lies in the unfolding doom
Knowing full well home is behind me--
So much depends on a breeze and a cloud.
