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.
