start, middle. finish

and then there are these quiet moments.
where nothing else is happening -
where there is no outside influence
and my street is as close to silent as
a pleasant street ever could be.

I can hear my thoughts
and they speak with clarity.
in succinct rhythms.

they say "ignore your past!"
blow your narrative up.
I just am tired of living
to tend my own shadow.

its time to create my own
spot. To talk about what really
matters.

Let it start, no,
let me start.
