women were highways often
leading into temptation
or away from it on occasion

women were sometimes whiskey
leaving me drunk on love
or trying harder to become so

women were occasional tomorrows
with promises worth waiting for
and hopes today would end premature

women were mostly yesterdays
with those look backs over shoulders
and wondering how the fits would be

if u-turns had just dawned on me sober

How beautifully expressed, dear D.!

Hope keeps us all going I guess.
