Just a trail in the sky.

On the trail
did I choose the road
or did the road choose me?
On the tracks of my tears
you brought on the rain
that washed your steps
as a cloud
you flowed away.

Andrew,
Interesting poem. Yes . . . a good question . . . one for philosophical debate. This is very wistful (if that's the right word). For some reason it made me go back and read your profile . . . especially the Strindberg quote. I do not recognize his name. Is this Strindberg or Mitchell?!
Yes . . . I agree with J. A strong image that doesn't shout but whispers loudly.

and yes, does the road choose us? perhaps...
