Marriage

 
I took his road

dusty

against vibram soles

off trail

in windfall

over scree

hidden lakes

cathedral mountain

base camp

or canyons

___________

NaPoWriMo prompt on Robert Frost’s The Road Not Taken

Scent

a small tabu

just a little too

of all these things we knew

what was and was not tabu

greater was my sin

of all the scents combined 

it spread on the skin very thin

 a choice was made every time
