Less Taken Roads

there is no road to recovery
but to absolution instead;
it does not wind like mythology says
but holds a path forward

straight and true,
like the room
in a house
in which I sleep; but,
only briefly do I understand...
all I have not done as the other road
too often traveled;
felines run through my memories
chasing their tails as I have often done
throughout my life,
and dusty recollections
sit in closed closets
never to be opened or reopened;
I yearn of the adventure of silence
that will arrive by UPS
later this week and the milestone
of yet another road less taken.
