Day 15, Quasi-Quarantine: Revival of 64




Heal me when I need a salve
Show me when I question what I have

Follow that road
Into the gloam
Revel in what’s showed
As it guides me home

Salt winds as fuel
When I’m hurting and sore
Rebirth and renewal
On highway 64

Crumbling structures in amber air
Bearing witness mute
Reek of rust and despair
Of time’s passage acute

Argyle shadows dapple a bridge
A checkerboard of transience
Hope lies over that ridge
Revealing the ocean’s ambience

So cradle me in the crescent
Of a sentient wave
Mold me to the present
A soul to soothe and save

An answer for every because
Restored once more 
Now bear me back to what I was

On Highway 64
