Running red lights

A shout-out to Han Pan's Bread of life blog... Here's a good poem from my collection:

River Sign
The sign said one way.
I was only going one way.
The river flows downstream,
but I want to go upstream.
Does love blind logic
from misreading signs,
trying to swim against the current?
Why are the cars honking their horns?
My arms are getting tired.
Maybe I should turn around,
and flow with life.
