THE LONG BACK TRAIN

A SHOT IN THE DARK

Fate is no Stranger
For I am its Course.

The differences between
Destiny and Fate .


Is a matter of Choice


If I turn the bend
Will it lead me

To the End?.


If I take the Curve

Too Fast

Will I turn at the End?.


If I am at

The Crossroad

What Track

Am I on?.


No choo choo train here

Nor whistles

Blowing

To tell me
What's Ahead.


Only Light and Dark
That I must Tread.


No Stop Sign

To Watch..


Except

What I have done.


No signal to alert.

If Conscience
Is not on track.


No light ahead
If I am in the Dark.

No Conductor
If I am its Charge.

A Poeatreeman

There are two Roads,
One Course

There are two Ends,
one Right

There are two Choices,
One Left

There are two Fates,
One Heaven

There are two Doors,
One Open

There is one Time,
When I was Born

One God,
To Open the Door

One to
Close it all Behind.

THE BRIDGE OF BEYOND?

I am in the middle of nowhere
Yet somewhere I see.

I am at the edge of Eternity
Yet I see Today.

I am at the start of here
Yet Tomorrow will pass my way.

I am at the crossroads of Yesterday
Yet finding where I've been.

I am between here and Eternity
Yet traveling where?

I am at the Bridge of Beyond
Yet one step to take me across.

I am at the end of time
Yet passing time
Beyond all measures.

I am here where I began.

A THOUGHT!

I am here when
I know where is
I am there
When I know what is

Dedicated To Angie

A Poeatreeman

No time to pass,
when left with self
No hands to move,
When time has stopped
No time unless,
I push ahead
No clock to move,
I'm faced with self
One Time to set,
Before it's gone
One hour ahead,
It's not too long
No time to wind,
Just pass Today
No time Tomorrow
I am here Today
Beyond Tomorrow,
I'll find no way.
