The Dream

To turn my back against this circle of smog.
To walk away from it all in a silent fog.
Like the frog, difficult to  perturb and concentrated in a task; I leave town.
never mind  the  chain, the  train, T.V., ., . The race, your face, our  products , or society; just   endless kinhin ; over and past streets is beyond the  water.
Past the homeless is with the homeless. Damn  an inflection, invention of  ease.   The most important part of me is now at peace.

Maybe I won't have a child, but how much better that I'm finally returned to the wild?
Not looking for anything, at anything, just a part of everything.

I know it's a dream,  wake  to  dream it up again.
