On the transitional road to....

The transitional phases

through life had

us guessing in

the lineup of queues

for a better life.

Some took the road

quite comfortably,

others veered off,

and a few needed a push

to get started.

There was no light

at the end,

no markers signalling

how long to go,

just a winding road

lined by your ancestry ghosts

egging you on

to the imaginary finishing line.
