![]() Running Rampart Rat RaceA Poem by Jock Engelman![]() (original upload found here: http://truml.com/profile/poetry-detail/106323 )![]()
Within the urge, continues to build on;
Separate from a place, I truely belong; Away from the trees, streams and animals; I wish to hide from, the husle and busle; I wish to hide from, the turns and tusles; Tired of running, in this rampart rat race; The blaze of fire, over the velvet black; Chirping sounds of song birds, reach my rucksack; The scents of pollenation, treat my senses; In my minds eye, back to the bush I go; Where there's no power, from connections or dough; It is programmed into my D.N.A; Darn! Back to the smokey, noisy, city; Just a single person, so itty-bitty; Long to live in the wild, with the serenity; Wish to sleep, with the beauty of nature; With the stars, butterflys, and all creatures; Where I belong, feeling wholy content; © 2012 Jock EngelmanAuthor's Note
