Where I End Up

From the scratched out, crumpled notebook weekly archive

Where I end up is puzzling,
But familiar,
Like the taste of a favorite food,
Made by someone new.

It recalls crashing waves,
And cars,
By young and old drivers alike.

Where I end up is conveniently out of the way,
The difficulty of a simple life made easily more complicated,
Or at least this was my attempt to be compelling.

It focused on unfinished projects,
Unseen successes.

Where I end up,
May have began with a we,
She is still there,
Where she is.

There is dish after dish of sea glass,
Amid other asthetics I had no appreciation for,
That confirmed no shared thoughts or dreams.

Where I end,
Is where I was,
When from moving feet,
I raised my head.

Thanks Chris, I would like to work with this one some more. I really like the part about watching my moving feet, because I think that describes me a lot. I always watch my feet when I walk, it looks like you're moving a lot faster when you count pebble by pebble instead of other guages.

This is wonderful! And I love your comment about moving pebble by pebble!
