Life, On the Tracks
Life is less a roller coaster and more train tracks of bliss and suffering, hardship and happiness at the same time.
Most of us, we like to think
we've nailed life down
and mapped its rhythms
and still we call it,
a roller coaster.
Most of us, though,
aren't feeling the thrills
or the violent hills
but rather just a train,
just on tracks.
And yet still the ride
can be so
wild.
