Verse

Keep the small beginning,
the crossing and the bend.
Perhaps the postcard margin
does not need a hurried end.

Refrain

The map has room for the road we did not take.
Let the room keep breathing.
Let the words arrive.
Leave a little space for what is still alive.

Original spoken-word lyric sketch in the Ordinary travel notes cycle. The refrain is shared by the ten pieces in this cycle. No audio recording accompanies this piece.
