gangway connections
we start to make plans and then we hesitate
one thing pulls us forward another holds us back
the old is again new and the new is now old
a mixed-up myriad of thoughts and feelings swirling around and through
people and places beckon people and places secure
experiences and memories tether us in unexpected ways
like moving through gangway connections on a speeding train
trying to balance without but ultimately having to grab the rail when the coach lurches
we've created more than one life attached ourselves to both
questioning what's realistic and true as we step into the future
back and forth back and forth
once more on that transitional precipice where answers are elusive liminal space unsettling
