“Clarity”

The band of city lights twine
Around his Ford
Ribboning along the interstate
Two old friends reminisce
A surge of passion interplaying
With the artificial, ethereal lights
Recounting roads tailed in the past
As the reflecting spectrum streams by us

“Clarity”

The band of city lights twine
Around his Ford
Ribboning along the interstate

Two old friends reminisce
A surge of passion interplaying
With the artificial, ethereal lights

Recounting roads tailed in the past
As the reflecting spectrum streams by us:
Unfurling outward and onward
Toward

Road signs marking possible
Entrances
And
Exits
