Back city roads
Right, right, left
accident on the highway
traffic diverted,
again
2020
memory of a youth
gone too soon
our butterfly
of orange
glow for your soul
turn black
as we lost
your vibrant
rainbow my friend
the chaos
around us
ignored by our connection
that night
you saw me, you saw me
dinner in the city
the buzz of the others
falling drunken
yelling loudly
we sat quiet
what was the chance
side by side
they seated us,
circumstance
of different generations
spirit sisters
activate
time stood still
in my heart my friend
creative outlet
big hearted
rebels of such
shut out for the same
self expression
they celebrated
years later when the
money rolled in
namaste my friend, namaste
