Charles Kuralt Bypassed my Street

i’m the tattooed
socialist
without any ink
i’m the anti-war

without the youtube account
i’m the farmers market
consumer
i drive myself there twice a week!
am i the?
i am the
the i am

the aclu
does not read
alex jones

Dances with Los Lobos
Shorter Than a Ted Talk yet Taller Than Deepak

a mind,

by
thought-free thinking…
knows everything
about nothing
in particular.
