The Vehicle
Routine. I am consumed by repetitions.
Todays are just rehearsals of tomorrows.
The future's in suspense or hibernating in remission,
in need of spontaneity to borrow.
I cannot help to feel that something's missing:
the wheel, the clutch, the damn transmission?
The vehicle of life's not roaring - hissing
as like it waits for to ignite permission.
Anticipation dreams is weaving and reminding
that I exist in moments through submission,
but crave for future to unravel, blinding,
accepting the routine...
from day to day transition.
