And one day
he just walked away
walked away from
the T.V. and the car
walked away from the
1/4 million dollar house
and fancy appliances
that he really didn't need
walked away from the
distractions
And he just walked
West or sometimes
South, maybe North
taking a job when he could
or had to
drinking in dirty
holes in the wall
with dirtier men and women
not trying, just living
just breathing
tossing old bottles
against brick walls
and sleeping under stars
getting mugged and
mugging
transforming, changing
fading away
into a dark American Dream
