Grab your Kerouac coat,
get on the road and
find everything you lost about yourself,
reclaim it from city street code.
Dust travels with the wind
when the wind is hesitant to go alone.
Along with the clouds that
cover the sky, cover the unknown.
Cars with driver and passengers
flee the mounting mess,
the debris of souls, money,
cash around the necks-
Choking on greed and new sofas,
deep porcelain baths, chunks of
meat: expensive, not kosher.
So grab that Kerouac coat
and get on the road.
Find something worth doing, before dusk becomes sweet-taste cold

Grab your Kerouac coat,
get on the road and
find everything you lost about yourself,
reclaim it from city street code.
Dust travels with the wind
when the wind is hesitant to go alone.
Along with the clouds that
cover the sky, cover the unknown.
Cars with driver and passengers
flee the mounting mess,
the debris of souls, money,
cash around the necks-
Choking on greed and new sofas,
deep porcelain baths, chunks of
meat: expensive, not kosher.
So grab that Kerouac coat
and get on the road.
Find something worth doing, before dusk becomes sweet-taste cold
