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.
