Is it for the wild places of the heart

William Garza

Time of past OR future Camino
Camino Frances, The Jakobsweg
That i would wonder forever with burning wanderlust.
To be away..somewhere in time,space and place to satisfy some deep and abiding hunger..hunger, such a small word..ravenous and unending...burning..needful as the ground under snow awaiting sunlight.

To hold nothing beside me all the while but having a fullness of heart
Embracing the wild wind, the hair of nature whipping,burning my eyes...yes burning while you laugh at the old man fading before your eyes...yet fearful of the power laid bare before you.

You who have nested early and in company
Fear the wild
Is it too big,too high..too much for comprehending
Make way I say
Make way

Make way for those who smile at the vast

Neither past...
Nor future..there are no better words
Rather than the cold entropy
We chose to ascend a ladder of light

What is it about the far and away

Is it for the wild places of the heart
Do we find?
Do we..
Did we, leave something behind

She isnt fickle..but downright insistent at time
the lingering echoes fading like thunder,fading like the last note of the music in your head waking up.
Or screaming wildly through-to..a foot thick of glass and im left guessing

And when silent i miss her so
