How Tends to Work Itself Out

I don’t know what to say
Sometimes I feel so much
It’s overwhelming
And inspiring
But not much bubbles up
No explanations
No images
No songs
No riveting stories to share
Just a sense of where I am
And what I need to do
It’s simple really
Do things I didn’t do before
Because I couldn’t see how
Or why
I still don’t know how
But I know why
And now I know a million things
Not to do
My life is like
A go kart on a track
Wearing a paper bag over my head
With a single pinhole
To seeI drive into the light
Slamming into barriers
Of stacked tires
Until I find forward
If you know why
How tends to work itself out.
