Duty

Life is full of responsibility
small daily obligation
they can overwhelm, erode
however easy 
or inconsequential
by shear volume 
and ceaselessness
but there is satisfaction
in commitment fulfilled,
in balance.

I had agreed to give 
my oldest friend's
teenage son
a motorcycle ride
and although
the logistics
were quite circuitous
the deed itself
was energizing.
