Dead Ends

See the edit below
Dedicated to hippiepoet69

A dead end means something went wrong
In the building of the road
Or in the traveling of the road.
A dead end is never the end of the road
Never the goal of the journey
Never a place one intends.
Dead ends are for turning around,
And trying again,
But someone built this road to emptiness
And others who arrive
Think they have come home.


Dead Ends Someone built this road to whoaImplying there was somewhere more.Are dead ends teleological?Failure is a hard ignoreSo people drop their cherished goalsTurn off the engine Lock the door.
