le voyage vide

sitting by the turnpike
left stranded by the ruins
a steady stream of misuse ripples by

waiting for a transit
that seems to have stalled somewhen
where were you going?
have you already passed this way?

this lethargic oasis
is a lonely heart's desert crag
to see the echo of your progress
the rubbed ether raw with bled out zeal

to reach out and almost....is that your essence?
but alas no, just a ghostly mumble
a fledged aura left to mark your journey there
