What is true
what is real
what I can see
or what I feel
the questions burn
a crooked trail
the heart is strong
the mind is frail.
I straddle lines
that mark the way
one step,
which foot
will lead
today
there good,
there bad
there in between
here I can see
what is not seen
imperfect human
lives in me
but in my heart
perfectly free.
