Burning Man Or Not
It's time, once again
For our annual desert event
Someone bought me a ticket
In the mail it was sent
My vacation is near
Not sure what I should do
Travel to the ocean
Or climb a mountain to the sky blue
Burning Man is 30,000+ people
Anything and everything goes
There's no laws to break
It's community of cultural shows
Drugs, alcohol, nudists
Family housing too
Eat at the cafeteria area
The crowd is anything but solitude
The artistic ability
Is not what you normally see
People spend all year preparing
Knowing there are no boundaries
Yet, I think a notepad and pen
Deep within the trees
Could bring more satisfaction
It's myself I need to please.
