rough road ahead






orange construction sign stationed just before the whisk on the corner of tenth & the side that burns blinks "ROUGH ROAD AHEAD, USE CAUTION" and i think, if only we had known, had been warned earlier, perhaps we would have adjusted our approach, more ginger, less garlic. isn't there something else that could be used instead? some other faculty that could pull you through or over the rough road. isn't caution just another way of saying BE AFRAID. and just how full of fear must we be? and would it really matter if we knew how rough that road was going to be? would we choose a different route? the sign announces that the nature of this ride, that we had grown accustomed to, will not be continued, that it will in fact change. if only we had known before we stabbed deeper into the side that burns. but what were you using before you used caution? what were you using before someone told you that you should be afraid? and when will we be advised to use frivolity, use levitation, use creativity, use intuition, use reason, use kindness, or dare i say it, love? when will we be advised to use love? 

ROUGH ROAD AHEAD, USE LOVE!
