Description
Airplane
Thirty-thousand feet
You don't see much
Mountaintops
Clouds lining up
Nothing on the ground
Is part of your experience
Interstate
Seventy-five miles per hour
Towns go by
Cows and barns
Lake trees pastureland hills
Interrupted by passing trucks
And it's still "other"
Country back road
Nobody around
Feel the air
Stop anywhere
Slower pace
Small towns
Linger in memory
Walk the shoulder
Smell everything
Crops are thigh high
Head high
Dirt after rain
Wheat in dry air
Experience is immediate
Stop someplace
Rent a room
Get a job
Start a life
Slow it down
Until it's no longer travel
Intimacy
Is in the details
Central Oregon
October, 2011
Somebody's barn on a country back road
On a sunny autumn afternoon
Image and words are my own work
