witness
numberless trestles,
ally sundry switchback branches
to extinction
searching
for pictures
for panorama
following
without breath
without foresight
consuming
all that is quiet
all that is earth and sky
remembering
ideas that changed us
maps we forgot to bring
witness this
beneath shadow
of storm struck pine
all your prophets
in stride, agree
don’t follow me.

Those sets stick out to me, it has a flow and mental image that lasts.
Very nice–idea, image, & sound all come together!
