I was never here, but look, I know these surroundings somehow. I might have been with you on this road that runs on one side of these woods. Looking west, from the woods, again I see the endless fields.

this side of the woods
but I don’t know when or how
I might have been here

I did smell this natural abundance before, the dominant tang of evergreens, foxgloves, and orange blossoms, but where, though I don’t care to recall? Yes, I had to have been here before.

green color endless
with sights of Jacaranda
a beauty hidden

Those fields stretch to a wide horizon where blackened storms must rise and dip to the woods, and if I did walk on this road before, why didn’t I see that slice of darkness in your eyes?

on our loaded lives
clouds gang up to bring rains
bending with the winds
