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.
