A SHIFT

...been feeling odd for days...


a little (how shall we say?) queasy...


never quite knowing which foot

to put forward and stalling

at every turn...


the same road I've been traveling for sure

but a shift...

a sense of a tiny modulation of movement

in a slightly changed direction...


what a sense of adventure and thrill

I would feel in younger days

at such a shift


but not now...not after all the tiresome detours

down which my mistakes have led me...


and to where this shift goes

makes no difference to me

unless it is finally down and out


off of this path and beyond anything I've known before...
