i  follow the tire tracks west.  they go 
 parallel with  the  railroad,  with  its 
 endless  mirrors looking kinda  oily. an 
  incredible power bound there... there's 
 a wire fence to separate  the two roads. 
                                          
 even though  there's a  foggy quality to 
 the air, the path  i  follow is glowing. 
 a  yellow-green  moss  has  taken   hold 
 where  the   machines  who   made  these 
 tracks  once disturbed the clover field. 
                                          
 we're  off the  season  when  the  birds 
 sing  beautifully.  these days it's just 
       screeches, or calls for help.      
                                          
 i   think  of  the   jackdaw  i   maimed 
   yesterday. i fear the dreaming gate.
