A Nod To The November Themes

Arm that plays with the wind
'tis mine but feels too free.
Travel light and travel fast;
the window down helps.
City lights and plights;
wish I could outrun myself.
No luck nor dice;
a spiritual rewrite?
No God would mistake
me for a worthy soul.

Maybe this time will be different.

Last few words: 
Definitely a not so serious attempt to mash together all four of the November topics... Thought I would give it a try :-)

no direct links with the themes, [titles]; I do see the obvious references. Very well written and thought out.~ Geez.

There is value to commenting and critique, tell us how you feel about our work.
This must be the place, 'cause there ain't no place like this place anywhere near this place.

You are correct Geez, I must admit -- I changed the title to properly reflect what you noted. It would be a true wonder to address the four themes in such a short poem, nigh impossible. It addresses one of the themes and nods to the other three...

A good read.

This was really fun to write :-)

IMHO. I really like the sense of progression. Lines 3-4-5-6 are IMHO masterful.

Wow... Thank you for your comments. You know, I wrote this in about 20 minutes... Not really sure if it was that good or not... but I did sense that it did link the four topics together and seemed just to flow...
