[ Valentines 2018 ] V(ibration) Day
Yes, I guess you could say
I'm a romantic at Heart
---somewhat of a Tin Man
questing from the very start;
Emerald City or bust
succumbing to rust
and lack of contrast
along the way
but never resting
not even to this very day
My choice of shortcut?
Deliberate because it
seemed by design
the avenues of others
were always ( never failed! )
less buckled than mine
rerouted further away
from the life I dreamed
as if paved with a cruel
sense of irony
This beaten path leaving me
bruised upon bruise
Dorothy, Dear
what brought you here
dressed to the nines
in those fancy red shoes?
Oil can in hand
coloring outside the lines
with similar visions of green
out of the clear blue?
A vibrational frequency
I was somehow tuned into
despite seized up compass dials
After tribulations testing
the cowardly and crucified
scarecrow trials by fire
desire prevailed
And to this very day
Love ensues
Darling
Always and Forever
my Yellow Brick Road
leads back Home to you
