Reconciliation is a zero-sum game

Karma delivers the mail

All prayers are filtered by God

While you create the wind in the sail

—

Trading tomorrow for more todays

Devalues the person you could become

Always take the long way home

Peace and love from your green thumb

—

Dreams strewn along lonely streets

Waiting for night to recede

Abandoned, unable to monetize

Some will fly, refusing to concede

—

You ask why and I have no reply

I left the highway for the open road

Never looked in the rear view mirror

And got free of that heavy load

—

Making choices when the pavement divides

Trusting that quiver deep in my gut

Assures me this decision is right

Crucial journeys are absent a shortcut

—

Dismantle the Dream, spend the cash

Gamble the sunshine, sell the stars

Trade the rainbow, harvest the whales

No one survives to read your memoirs
