instantly
you took my breath
far away from me
we drove so fast
right through you
knew i needed to
visit
once twice
perhaps trek into a lost
eternity
the madness you have
seen
felt
roads cars rains
soiled air
i am so sorry you have been through
this
the drive to get to you
nearly as exhilarating as when
i trod amongst you
the most narrow dark road
lit only by rays of flat light
that creep through holes
found in your canopy
the most lush of greens
the richest browns from which you
stem
the air so wet and filled with growth
old and new
seen from the street
is but the smallest sample
of an endless maze
how i would love to be lost
for here
i am far from alone
