accepting the air we breathe
the remedy is closer
than you think
though it seems to pass you by
undetected like an unseen
seductive glance
your god is a jealous one
though you’ve learned to accept that
needlessly questioning
her inconsistent suggestions
it would do you well to consider
the road less traveled
next time you set off on foot
clearing the mind
and patiently engaged
for the answer lies
somewhere in the wind
