About Me

One man walking down a two laned road with no sidewalk wonders about the nature of who he is and the nature of the transience of the nature that surrounds him while the sound of lawn mowers and weed whackers and automobiles and birds coddle the daylight and far off trains and large air conditioning units wheedle through the night with crickets and frogs and four year old brazillian boys in the heat of late afternoon wear underoos only in their yards pointing out murdered mice that their stalking cats brought to them as gifts and old mothers can't shake their nature and shuffle the boys and the cats and the dead mice out of the street where they wandered so as not to be hit by hippie hatted college kids in their suv's speeding high through these hilly subdivisions and all the while the man smells exhaust and gasoline and the two laned road is now a six lane highway and the woods that lined the road are now subdivisions and strip malls with targets and publixes and more airconditioned and now he sees more deer than he did ten years ago and more chipmunks and more hawks because they have no homes except the homes people build and the stream he was looking for is gone but the cemetery is still there.
