The Contented Road

In every town you'll find me
sprawled, cluttered, empty, straight.
Way that ties the world.
Uninvited guest beneath crusades and pilgrim's knees,
bearer of the hearse and slow steps that follow.
Resting place of parting tears.
Escape and the way home,
I am the journey others take
I am the road.
