You are shooing the sunset away with your headlamps, the flames burn bright on the asphalt. Which direction is your mind pointing to? Whilst your thoughts wandered, the gravity of your life thumped upon the accelerator in search of new pastures. Those shiny and glittery crimson wedding nails of your woman have just served as the ink for the divorce papers. Whilst the curves needed better reflexes, your thoughts dampened the response to the world around, the repulsion between the wheels and the road had seen an exponential rise. The sands in your hourglass are reaching the other end soon….where did you park your car today? In heaven? In hell? In limbo?
When your strengths conspire against your motion, when your dreams navigate into a commotion, you are driving a vehicle devoid of control, your faith corrodes, the freedom in the air slaps hardly on your face and suddenly you switch the gears- low and halt…you notice the sky’s leaking some blood through the pain from severing the sun to a different hemisphere, you notice the tides of victory feel the gravity of oblivion, you let the glittering pride on your flags guide you past the bumpy roads…where did you park your car today?In pain? In love? In quest?
“I can feel you in my head, disguised in a dream,” Have you tasted those grapes of wrath and the sourness they epitomized.
My car is parked here, this page where all your thoughts, apprehensions, dreams, fears, ambitions, procrastinations, deeds, sins, bucket lists, and nightmares… are parked… Time and space is an interesting co-incidence.
