Virgin Mary hangs on the wall
A present from a family elder.
Jimi Hendrix wails on the stereo
and hot summer breezes blow.
Lives are being formed as
creativity trumps practicality.
Experimentation makes life fun
we have little yet are joyous.
There is no path to follow.
no one I know has made this journey.
