Starved sleep depraved and braving visions This is how I take my walk One song tucking over and over in my headspace This is how I take my walk Map-less My dry head tugging from behind my eyes This is how I take my walk My bag packed with care (by list and by experience) I abandoned it by the front door This is how I take my walk There’s this note I’ve left for you much is explained lots is left held (that content I carry with me) Leaving a trail of my clothing I am body naked to the weather I carry no knife but am married to my teeth and my fixtures I’ve outstrided my pollution Upon reaching an unfamiliar forest I unlace my shoes And place them on a rock I draw a breath Place my fear I trend tender into the trees

Walk
Starved sleep depraved and braving visions This is how I take my walk One song tucking over and over in my headspace This is how I take my walk Map-less My dry head tugging from behind my eyes This is how I take my walk My bag packed with care (by list and by experience) I abandoned it by the front door This is how I take my walk There’s this note I’ve left for you much is explained lots is left held (that content I carry with me) Leaving a trail of my clothing I am body naked to the weather I carry no knife but am married to my teeth and my fixtures I’ve outstrided my pollution Upon reaching an unfamiliar forest I unlace my shoes And place them on a rock I draw a breath Place my fear I trend tender into the trees
