If I Had A Freeway Billboard

If you had a freeway billboard, what would it say?

If I had a freeway billboard

I would leave it empty

so imagination could step in

a pause

for eyes tired of color and command

an empty slate

light as feathers

on the freeway of life

moving

through sun

through rain

curiosity lingering

about what might come next

no slogans to borrow

nothing to copy

nothing to paste

just wind passing

metal frame breathing

cars carry their own stories

unread

uninterrupted

a moment without instruction

no arrows

no promises

only the road

stretching

and the mind

loosening its grip

thoughts slow down

like traffic after rain

nothing is asked

nothing is sold

and somehow

that is enough
