Repeated Reality

Inspired by Henry David Thoreau and Ralph Waldo Emeron as well as John Krakauer's "Into the Wild"

Loud lustfulness to wander the unwandered.

Climb the mountain with pimpling bushes 

To stand, stand stalking the consumed world below, 

Road meets road in the raped earth.

Life's conformity is freedom's death,

Too often do we funnel routine's way.

Strip me away from my predestined plan

Set before me in the angst of the placenta.

I need to run over mountain's nose,

Tumble down its vertebrae,

Germinate my seed of sprout adventure,

Awaken from this repeated reality.
