what do you want to be?

I had a dream once.
when I was young.
to be a hobo.
I did not know.
hobo as a negative.
I only thought of.
a wanderer.
like Socrates.
or Jesus.
wandering through.
a land.
talking to strangers.
sharing wisdom.
I loved walking.
along the empty.
train tracks.
in my hometown.
travelling from.
town to town.
imagining I was a hobo.
sharing wisdom.
with strangers.
