the land where i was born

all this flying around the world
this yearning to travel beyond
these wide wonderful prairies

this itchiness under our feet
to roam over the mountains
and out towards the sea

this unexplained inclination
to wander farther and farther
in any direction that suits

all this desperation to go --

but all i ever wanted was
to return to the pastures we once explored
to the land where i was born.
