Progress (2015)

 What must it be like not be led?

To fly, to soar

Or slip in soft mud ahead..

Can we ever know the right

To make our own mistakes, to be

Judged only in hindsight,

Audacious in our glory,

Outrageous in our errors

That day will come, I know that now

(But do not ask me why or how)

And if I’ve gone, do let me know

I shall ever be connected, wherever I go

And raise the bottle to your lips

On a hot day, warm water too is bliss,

Do not doubt its moistening power, 

In the desert blooms a passion flower.
