Bogs Afar

Cross the river Charles Steady stream of steam the bogs envelop Sweaty air resists your passage Drift to town a short distance down Woolly summer wonder wrought All move and sing at once A billow from his pipe His bellow calls you up to join him From a porch, the fairest view Sun defies, shining over parting dew Words of wisdom few like heavy drops A footstep on a board so strained for freedom Golden few the moments shared While poltergeists play for your attention No possession greater than a word Mulled within the greater space of mind
