A Walk into the Woods

A Walk into the Woods by Jack A.S. Dunce I'm tired of listening to this world's talk Packed all belongings in a canvass bag One last time, into the deep woods I walk In the past, so aghast, it made me balk All that they ever did was flag and tag I'm tired of listening to this world's talk Go to the zoo if all you do is gawk I'm taking off the gag but I won't nag One last time, into the deep woods I walk Keep those suits, I'll stick to my mohawk No reason left to let the standoff drag I'm tired of listening to this world's talk An alcove lost to the bamboo groves' stalks Their wagging tongues made the rags I wore snag One last time, into the deep woods I walk In the end, just an outline made of chalk There's nothing here, just one more road-killed stag I'm tired of listening to this world's talk One last time, into the deep woods I walk ©️pgmr 06/08/2024 *Inspired by the documentary "They Called Him Mostly Harmless"
