chain-link line fence
families stroll maryland to west VA
hiking polls held horizontal to ground
I have walked 12 miles since morning
white blazers pass me ask
how far the next shelter south
I point to Garvey some-when in my past
this a day and several miles behind
taste of ice cream milkshake before me
Gabow put the idea there on my tongue
in my tired hiker's mind
sky is mid-afternoon
town is red white blue madness
I am dried of rain soaked with sweat
eyes to the sun
walking now on sidewalked streets
walking south
walking home
AT Poems XIII
