I return to fabled places
Find there
Always
Something new
A different light
A new story
History added
Or revised
Here mittens and buttes
Formations once remembered
For Spaghetti Westerns
Now where Forrest Gump
Just plain stopped runnin’
I return to fabled places
Find there
Always
Something new
A different light
A new story
History added
Or revised
Here mittens and buttes
Formations once remembered
For Spaghetti Westerns
Now where Forrest Gump
Just plain stopped runnin’
I remind myself
The valley once
Was plateau
Thrust up high
Then worn away
By time and weather
In silence
I listen
In darkness
I find light
In mystery
I find insight
In questions
I find…
My eyes, they cannot see
The fine details
In just a narrow band
Of frequencies
