Unseen Force

Beyond the cliffs

There is a breaker in the wall

I had never gone that far

Roving in the dark

Climbing the basin

There were bands of buffaloes

In a murmuration

I fell into the fold

Another rugged mile pointed to the North

In conversation with an unseen force

Another rugged mile pointed to the North

I will be different than I was before

Slept in the shadow

Of a Ponderosa pine

With the reasons for my crime

Burning up my mind

Flowers like candles

Line a way for me to run

I have to beat the sun

Who will I become?

Another rugged mile pointed to the North

In conversation with an unseen force

Another rugged mile pointed to the North

I will be different than I was before

Another rugged mile pointed to the North

In conversation with an unseen force

Another rugged mile pointed to the North

I will be different than I was before

Another rugged mile pointed to the North
