The Drive Home

The first set of lines penned out in response to starting a new book in my library of life : Gauge. The only influence Ace had after the prologue Gauge and I acted out pre-Canada is seen in the completion of some unfinished verses ; a tying up of loose ends, the epilogue of Ace. The following lines reflect on the awakening of new feelings between Gauge and myself and the realization that hit me as I was driving back from his place.


The Drive Home

A flash of white
'fore turning right
was all it took
to get you hooked

Your mem'ry 'rased
of her distaste
so all of you
could shine right through
my darkened place
where love was based

But when you looked
at me you took
my heart that night
and gave love flight
