The golden path is no longer paradise lost.
October 2020
Hold on to what’s golden
7 months no breaches
A job and a place of my own
That’s how gravy’s made
New friends, new connections
Precious Banter
Sacred good cheer
And all that hard work is rewarded
So move forward
Let the soul sing
And everything
Improves with time
Let the soul find
New pathways to well being
New moments exploding
With the ripe juice of the modern life fruit
Passion, pride, power
Be brave as we progress
Behave and keep rolling
The hard yards are done
The horrors subsided
The river of shit gives way
To the forest of hope
New dreams and all seems
Golden forever
Forever golden

All the effort put in over the past 7 months is starting to bear fruit. The hard work I’ve done at my blue collar job driving a forklift is giving me the money to rent my own place and the care and attention I’ve carried with my social life is opening doors to a lot more fun and friendship in life.
There’s still so far to go to really be living a truly good life and to make amends with my old friends and family but I feel like things couldn’t be much better this early on in the course of freedom.
The golden path is no longer a paradise lost but a treasure to be discovered.
Christo, I think it is a little better in Australia than in the US to start over. I am glad you have opportunities and are making good use of them. Bravo! 🙂 Love the poem!
