Into the Wild

Chris McCandless ventured 
With knowledge, know how 
& not one dollar to his name 
He stayed in a magic bus 
For many many a moon 
living off plants and other 
Just to survive another day 
But due to circumstances 
He made one false error 
Which cost him everything 
And left him to die alone 
In the harsh harsh outback 

Many recall his trip 
In one way or another 
and re tell his story

Smile~Well, what is it dear? I'd really like to know Leah!? But, I do like the fact that he bucked the main stream philosophies and sometimes poisoned wire ties of life! But, where did he go wrong?~"Love & Warmth Always To 'You & Yours,' John!!!":):) Bye Leah ~
