DRIVING TO SIBERIA
A sufficiency of living gleams
in her faded blue eyes,
old virtues fluttering.
She prepares to write,
ideas popping like
soapy bubbles.
A wondrous variety
of choices explode,
then her train of thought
is abruptly interrupted.
Words are lost almost as soon
as she finds them.
Feeling old, she won't
know who she is
until she gets there.
