Smoking Gun

Smoking Gun


Here I am
Back where I started.
This starting block is worn
And the starting gun misfires

Quarter life crisis
Nicely sums up
Nothing
Of what my life has become
Or where
It is going.

I’ve slipped off the worn
Starting block
And I am swimming
Naked through
This blue pool of life.

I left my clothes draped
Over
The smoking gun
And swimming soundly
Naked as when I
Was born.
