Graves Unvisited
Go to where the air runs thinnest
where snow leopards stalk granite paths
where prayer flags slap cherry-faced spirits
where nature is conceived... unforgiving
go to where the air is thinnest-
Go to where hearts caress the clouds
mountain goats walk the path of dirtbag ghosts
Where oxygen is more cherished than gold
Where visions tumble from red-knuckled clouds
into rucksacks of the wizened who've earned them.
Go to where grandfather blizzard is unforgiving
Go to where the air is thinnest.
Go far away from where you're at now.
Far from the riotous and caliber crowds.
Go to where the visions are clearest.
Where mountaintops go unvisited.
Where rewards are measured in star-dusted breaths.
Where nature dances under blue avalanche.
Go to where the air is thinnest... and live!
