ROAD

The road is foggier on our way home,

but, for some reason, the world

doesn’t feel so foggy anymore.

I guess it doesn’t really matter as much

what the future might be hiding,

since I have today.

We drive past the curve where

my daddy’s car flipped off the road,

and I don’t even close my eyes.

It’s the first time I’ve watched it pass

since the night my daddy died.
