I Walk

Walkin' away

Sheddin' slow the generations

The towns dissolve

In my drummin' footfall

Discarded clothin' on the ground

But I still carry it all

The air cool and blue

The livelihoods, the expectations

The cities of never stoppin' thoughts

So l just still walk

Draggin' through stone

Piled alive with associations

Since all time trailin' behind me

Back into the mist

I walk until it's all fallen away

Comin' into a clearin'

There's a pause

Between the breaths

And I look up

Mist kissed face

Vast grass shufflin'

Treeless place

Expanse encirclin'

The sky on my lips

Fog pulled in slow

Until I, too, dissipate

Find me blinkin' at dawn
