Nomad

A curious character was sought out by the civilized as a primitive.
They disliked him - he was clothed in secrets and mysteries.

His identity was found
between swaying motions of seas - the slow movement of terrain
between eyes and feet
desire of a home is cradled in hands and heart where shapes move,
fumbling back, cutting around in a slippery surrealism;
dark broken by the sun
morning.

Nomad
was woken abruptly by city
traveled down new streets built in seconds
cultures were singing songs cut-up into transient echo
mouths tasted insatiable fats
bodies loved, and minds were dulled into muddier pathways
all traded in a magnificent aroma that wafted further
to nether -
ether in home.
