Into the Wild

Chris McCandless ventured With knowledge, know how & not one dollar to his name He stayed in a magic bus For many many a moon living off plants and other Just to survive another day But due to circumstances He made one false error Which cost him everything And left him to die alone In the harsh harsh outback Many recall his trip In one way or another and re tell his story
