Vagabond Dreams
Just another vagabond
a nomadic wanderer along the rivers and streams,
living footprints in the sands,
thirsting in the arid passages of time;
the path unclear yet lay wide open
homeless unravelers of lost ethnicities
through the unseen iron grated doors
holding close to the heart longings, want
of all that was, all that is,
all that came before
an idle vagrant waiting transient stray
huddling with the masses for freedom's sake;
a prodigal on his roaming journey
traveling through history's recordings
marking time and place
dreams clouding, hazy and vague,
erased.
