TO THE WILD

To above and beyond; to voices more silent,
I boldly go- to an earth, less violent.
To seek only but reason that I must find,
Off the civilisations that grew so unkind.

Far from the educated and the highly civilised
There is but society which is yet exercised.
Sans lie, sans brood, sans all domestic perils,
No love, no hate; not even the wordily thrills.

No scrapers to fill the exploding skies,
Brighter vistas above to feed the eyes.
Residents reside in the green camouflage,
Some prefer humbler abodes; some live at large.

The vows of leaders seldom reach the wild,
Like the teacher's lesson to a back-benched child.
Here, the fancy comforts are so little required,
In dainty wildernesses; delicately wired.

Desire refuses to dismiss this want,
That binds the heart of beguiling haunts.
And if I die to the heavens see;
May this then that holy heaven be.
