Leave me be, content to suckle
Contentedly imbibing my delusory elixir
The replete nourisher of my soul
With longing I taste its sweet nectar
...
A moment in time
Awake, only forward bound
Profound beliefs
Brief appearance, an episode
...
A walk on a country road longingly beckons
Here where my stride is undaunted by the milling crowds
Here where I stroll free far from the incessant clamor
Harmony prevails; strife gives way, the subtle stirs anew
...
Weed, oh fragile bastion mine
Here respite, where I and my other self sometime choose to reside
Hail fellows not well met, my illicit companions too easily abide
Their bong absent of peal, imparts instead faint fragrant illusions
...
We whom sway not our fertile seed
Mute are we in our conception
Absent are the concept of time and memory
Oblivious are we to our tether eons binding
...
My soul, woefully honed on the city's whetstone
Hopelessly oblivious to a too familiar echoing drone
Daily roaming its concrete canyons ribbed with steel
Nature centralized, where one might escape one might heal
...
