Poems written while traveling.
Badlands
After a long stretch of incorporeal transition time will release its obligations as I think— how deftly I have come to this indelible place where speed becomes relative to the roadside swallows and even gravity is hard-put to hold this road down while traveling with cruise control. Darling, make a note of this wicked landscape as those mountains remain our hapless and immediate destination. Like moths to a porch light we reveal the weakened nature of our intentions and pursuits. This land is alluring and its beauty congeals as a thing we exchange in quick, furtive glances. back | ToC | next
