Just a road!

Of roads that
go to nowhere
following the course
of no return,
but looking back
each path had
a meaning
on a trek travelled
having no goal
was reached
but a moment was restored.

The moment was not restored, but the perception of it was. There is only one moment, but the surface mind chops it up. The meaning of each path is the restoration of the perception of that initial moment. Interesting work here.

this had me singing Talking Heads..."i'm on the road to nowhere"---

Andrew, what you've captured here is the truth about the value of life's journeys, not the destinations. The path to truth and fulfillment seems a random zig-zag path up close, but viewed from high-above forms a straight line, much like a ships purposeful zig-zag course across oceans. A brief and meaningful piece.
