Follow your path

Move forth with smoke from the exhaust ahead,
cough and struggle to breathe or move over instead,
overtake that which holds you back from your road,
let go of the trailer and let spill your heavy load,
so another can pick up the pieces as you go,
now the path is clear and easy to show,
looking back and seeing the crashes behind,
inside this mess the others are blind,
turn around to help them or choose not,
having everything you need and all you got,
never making that choice while at a stop,
but now on the hill you look down from the top.
