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.
