Into the Wild...

Into the Wild...

A Poem by Crispy

Into the wild...
Into the smiled upon mystic unknown--

Down long tethered roads where
 the muskeg is grown with whispering trees
Telling their tales to the wandering breeze

Where mist lingers down to veil the eyes
 of the distance one goes in the frail disguise
 their humanity grows~

Show me your lostness
Show me your strife
And I'll show you the cost of a borrowing life

I'll show you tomorrow unveiled today
In the christening myst of a whispering way

love the image created here...according to my drs i have been living on borrowed time due to HIV/AIDS for nearly 20 years...odd the cost of tricking a virus to borrow time on this plane of existence...

Show me your lostness
Show me your strife
And I'll show you the cost of a borrowing life
