I am Shotgun

Out of the post blue
I am shotgun
At your side
Recurrently

We are forever entangled
Though we never speak
Of the oath we once took
It just is

A constant companion
In the back seat
It is no longer armed
But we still allow it
To hijack us

Across the uneven
Ground we go
For days at a time
Far from other souls

This is dry land
There is no nourishment
Here
But we come anyway

And then we go
Until the next time
I am shotgun
