"Everything Moves On: Diary of a Social Trend" - Written 25/04/08

Once I had a companion,
On this journey of mine.
We rode this road together,
Once upon a time.

They left for another,
At the side of the road.
I was left to myself,
In this vehicle alone.
My only company
A crackling radio,
Out of tune and broken.
No words were spoken.

My vehicle is not old,
But it was mistreated.
The battery is low,
The fuel is depleted.
The painting is scratched,
The mirrors are broken,
The tyres have flattened,
The windows have darkened.
A sign ahead tells me
The route is closed.
I must part with vehicle,
To continue this road.
