Night Ride Poem by Indira Renganathan

Night Ride

Thesun lights only to trail dark
Like this car lighting to trail dark
Along its night ride

I turn back to count the gone days
I've lived so far in breathed lighting
Just to find nothing

Dark and dark alone, nothing else
I doubt I lived at all ever
Miredmind tired musing

Bends and turns hit the journey on
Trailing still the car dark behind
Sealed with odds and ends

I gaze at the forerunning light
Waiting for the heavenly arc
To sweep it away
