Meteor

Youth
powerfully flexing
age and wisdom

perplexing
possibly thinking
it could be demanding
understanding

disaster
craters of thoughts
splattering
going nowhere
bleeding innocence
and hope with

courage
stupidity steering blindly
straight
future corners
sorted out in hindsight

brave
law-abiding youth
caged
pretty smile
strong

lift up your head
dance
in a room
sitting

cause Son
old age absent
how I’d meteor
into Earth
bravely disintegrating

new-fangled different
inexperienced birth
hemorrhaging
wisdom
and
age
