Escape

got into the car
and drove away
was here so long
I couldn't stay

out of the city
and into the hills
into the forest
where water spills

tumbles and splashes
on the way through
canyons and gorges
waterfalls too -

got out of the car
and walked along
with ravens' in treetops
peculiar song

echoing in
the forest's hush
mushrooms and mosses
forming a lush

bio-electric
paradise
for unseen beings
smaller than mice -

entered a glade
with a burbling stream
lay down beside it
and started to dream

you were there with me
we were in love
both with each other
and light from above

which tickled our senses
making us feel
although we were dreaming
it was still real -
