Wrong Turns (B&W Final Cut #13)
97 words, 23 lines
Free Verse
House Florent Image for G.o.T.


inside star systems
dark matter plots
the course we take
in a future past
or mythic times of yore...
you think?

and with minds turning into
dusty panes
when we strut, looking up
not seeing, not knowing
where we are going,
something gets lost
along the way and
in a busy city, so many turns
we shuffle through
and miss a turn or two
or maybe the wrong turn
is itself the catalyst.

Such is the fate of our tales
so spun by the hand
that wields the steel, since
even Ceasar didn’t expect
to be stabbed.
