I last saw freedom
crossing a bridge
made a wrong turn
ended up lost
with rocks in my shoes
crossing wet roads
walking in the shoulder
miles away from light
pack heavy on my back
silver hair blowing like a flag
in the wind
moving toward the ocean
walking in the late May rain
I thought I saw freedom once
before the fog rolled in
standing in front
of a lighthouse
on the Pacific coast highway
going from one prison
to the darkness of another
