Paths

critiqued

answers demanded

shouts to the contrary

fall on deaf ears –

as we walk alone.

Oblivious to

humility

wrestling with contradictions

its poignancy palpable

pivoting to palpitations

of culminating convictions

that intersects

with a road –

paved of distinction.

Listening intently –

for clarity in consequence

drips that give way –

to torrential downpours.

And – whispers that metastasize

into

ancestral shouts.

Granting their children

immunity

to extinction.
