Places

Around the corner or
Around the bend...
It's coming... it's
On it's way... it's
About to be yours
Any day...

Just wait, don't give up
Or give in to the idea that
You've gotta settle for
What is it again?
Something beneath you?
Isn't that Mother Earth and
Isn't or hasn't she been
Supporting you since birth?

You go back into her crust -
A pie crust cracked and
Spackled shut after your
Burial in the gooey warmth of
The blueberry filling you
Willingly plunged into to
Plant your being so it can
Grow into the nooks and
Crannies of a life you were
A bit too excited to exit for the
Underworld under the world
You treaded upon not long
Enough to do and see all you
Wanted on the bare back of a horse,
You - wearing brown, white stitched
Tony Lama cowboy boots.
