Wandering, wandering wonderall ....

Wandering, wandering wonderall ....
the highway
the road less travelled
jack kerouac

images conjured of hitchhiking sojourns into an American Night

still the day may arrive
I'll wander these broken dream highways into the East
through the Plains, & the Ohio Valleys

through Mississipi & stretches of Appalachins
Pennsylvania, Upstate New York
eeerrie canal, wanderlust, daydream, deadhead road tours

yeah I love the idea the yielding horizon
yielding small towns, giving up the ghosts of histories past
quiet times, tree-lined avenues, rolling hills, baled hay, & cotton
windmills, watertowers, old mills, abandoned houses

on the outskirts, prairies, cattle roam
ancient trails, wonders home.

wonder is here
where I wander in mind
to all the places unseen
in Time.
