I have learned to live here in this imperfect place
of gravel roads and dry spells
the curves of each continent
have shifted and grown
in a sea of uncertainty
and they
serve as a reminder
that time etches away and in turn also gives back
winds of
many seasons have blown through
leaving only silken curtains of grey
and eyes that view the world
with a blurry yet perceptive focus
but let me
be clear
I am comfortable here
naked or in armor
it is all i have known and the practice
of perseverance in shielding and truly letting
go
have given me calluses in all the right places
I am tat-tooed in grace and scarred with
lesson's travels
that tell stories my lips never will.
