traverse

peacefully breathing
taking it in
letting it out as i begin
drawing on air
and carbon monoxide
never stopping
constantly growing
bringing it in
and letting it out
growing tall and rain may spout
flowing through grass
on meadows and plains
rolling through sands
on the dust of pompeii
wandering through the ashes of rome
staggering about the champs d'lyssey
never knowing which way
jumping hot lava rocks in hawaii
picking one up and tossing it lightly
jumping between the molten and rock
swimming beneath and floating on top
crossing back over to the subways of rome
or perhaps grab the metro if paris is your home
the tube has called once or twice
but london is just not my type
antartica seems like it needs some friends
its cold down there
and the glaciers never end
breathing in and breathing out
hoping to know what this life is about
never knowing where one may go
never knowing what one may know
travel far and travel near
grab a taxi here or there
meet new friends and try new drinks
eat the food and enjoy the scene
just dont stay for far too long
either annoying or moving forever and on
come home one day is my advice
unless home just isnt as nice
