Wood Runners

Running aimlessly in the woods

Hoping to enchant yourself in the leafy green

Free, lost, or somewhere in between 

Just another crazy river rolling

You’re a ghost dancer defying death

Always running hopelessly short of breath

Maybe a wolf, maybe a bear

Or an eagle flying over it all

You’re an ancient echo bouncing of the rocks

A broken arrow of memories flashing past

Piercing the future true and fast

A war drum beating in the woods
