Daily tribute
Trying to progress
Change won’t come easy
You have to invest
Spend yourself wisely
Scout the path ahead
And if occasion calls
Gamble everything instead

Familiar…
Trading blows with the world
Gravity bests me
Break my body
At home with pain
Cut and bruise me
Unrelenting
Shattered bones
Hello, old friends
Tapestry
Pulling at threads
Pulling apart the memory
Sorting out the scraps
Tying loose ends
Pulling at threads
Consider each in turn
Tracing back
Origins obscured
Pulling threads
Testing out connections
Sending more to the bin
Irrelevant
You won’t notice that they’re missing
Committing less and less
Becoming singular
Honing my focus
Reshaping my mind
Finding my purpose
Somewhere down the line
Priorities set
An ever growing list
In constant flux
Constantly chasing
Checks and balances
Burial
Silence in the dooryard
The first of many days
Future quiet
Traces soon to fade
Trails blazed, reclaimed
Returned to nature’s grasp
Remains
Interred beneath the grass
Tearing up the carpets
Pulling all the tacks
Staring at the walls
Always looking back
Wandering the paths
Where we used to play
Heart sinks
Holding to the memory
Last light
Last night on Earth
So many happy memories, all owed to her
Thirteen years will never seem enough
Time is short in the life of a dog
Uncharted
Will in flux
New concept of “enough”
Expanding limitations
Starting to look up
More often taking in the sky
New horizons
Broadening my mind
Taking up a ready stance
Moments spent
Few to save
Rolling defense
Never stay long in one place
Always on the chase
Seek the unattainable
Take rest
Only after I feel whole
