Homesteading

He leaves the city, journeys
as far as his legs will take him, and settles
somewhere unknown. Here his manhood responds
to the chaos with a new kind of order,
one never seen before. Here he finds
what he could not find: a chance
to build for himself a home that suits
his peculiar eccentricities. Here lies new vigor,
the scent of the freshly tilled earth, and the hope
that some part of his dreams may come true.
He builds forward and up to the stars.
