pressing forward roadfirst passing
rolleddown open means windbrushed hair
fingers stroking back what's left behind
tangled as the route unweaving
there is no map to follow
why roadside stands are fresh with now
unsteady destination and all hitchhikers fall back
(eyes caught elsewhere and dreams fade like channelchange)
drivethrough and dropoff
steady until fumes
refill with new colors / numbers / reasons
forward to roads paved with whynot and heat
melting into hazy hope
still there can be no stopping
cycle through the round and back
pressing forward roadfirst passing

While this blog's original purpose was to keep myself honest in my practice of doing daily justwrites-- 10-minute freewrites from some unusual starting points-- it has meandered to occasionally include other sorts of writing, to address other goals, and to even include other authors. Now, its main function is as a sort of verbal/ thought outcropping in public view. These are not polished pieces, and most are completely rough drafts. As some pieces may be developed through revision, your comments are most appreciated.
