Hey now, little speedyhead,
the read on the speedmeter says
you have to go to task in the city
where people drown and people serve.
[ Old man to young man: "It's time for you to leave home and make your way out there, in a dangerous world." ]
Don't be shy. Your just deserve
is only just light years to go.
[ "Take risks. You have many years ahead of you." ]
Me, my thoughts are flower strewn
ocean storm, bayberry moon.
I have got to leave to find my way.
[ "Me, I'm a poet, a dreamer. I've always chosen to find my own path in life, because that's my way."]
Watch the road and memorize
this life that pass before my eyes.
Nothing is going my way.
[ "Keep your eyes open and remember what I'm telling you about my life. These lessons will serve you well." ]
The ocean is the river's goal,
a need to leave the water knows
We're closer now than light years to go.
[ "We all live independently, and we all someday die. You never have as much time as you imagine you do." ]
I have got to find the river,
bergamot and vetiver
run through my head and fall away.
[ "I've got to find my path in life. It's a unique one, an artist's path, a poet's path." ]
Leave the road and memorize
this life that pass before my eyes.
Nothing is going my way.
[ "Don't follow everybody else. Set your own course. Learn from me and my life. Nothing has been easy, but it's been good because it's been mine."]
There's no one left to take the lead,
but I tell you and you can see
we're closer now than light years to go.
[ "There's not many others out there like you and me, independents who see and do things in our own unique way." ]
Pick up here and chase the ride.
The river empties to the tide.
Fall into the ocean.
[ "Start. Go forth. Live life -- your life. Do it now, because some day you're going to die." ]
The river to the ocean goes,
a fortune for the undertow.
[ "All paths in life end." ]
None of this is going my way.
[ "My life will end soon." ]
There is nothing left to throw
of Ginger, lemon, indigo,
coriander stem and rose of hay.
[ "I've made all beauty that I can in life. I've reached the end of my art, so now I know I'm nearing the end of my life." ]
Strength and courage overrides
the privileged and weary eyes
of river poet search naivete.
[ "Young artists must always take the place of older ones." ]
Pick up here and chase the ride.
The river empties to the tide.
All of this is coming your way
[ "It's your turn. Follow your artistic bliss. I've done everything I'm going to do, and I'm content and ready to be done with life, with art, with love." ]
