The Flow

Control is an illusion
let's us think that we can plan,
lay out a path that leads from a to b.

In truth the path we follow
may have those exact endpoints,
but many more betwixt than it would seem.

More often when we set a course
the journey telescopes,
and a little rollercoastering ensues.

White knuckling to hang on
is the order of the day
and survival is the best we can construe.

So roll with all the punches
ride the breakers when you can.
Give a hand up when the opportune presents.

'Cause we're all in this together
and it's how we play that counts.
Learning kindness surely bests the perfect plan.
