Description Fresh air blows through open windows
As I view the world through panes of glass
Yellow lines skip freely by
Corn stalks are undisturbed by my passing

In autumn leaves swirl freely
My wake tumultuous by understanding
A dichotic empire of culture twists around me
Yet the world seems so familiar here

There are few others on this road
I know where I am.  I've been here before
The clouds grow once again to the north
Lightning plays with treetops and fence posts

I continue unabated and unafraid
Invincible in my realm of reason
The sun has set with glowing colors
Shadows long to infinity in the endless twilight

I head to the glowing clouds now lit from below
Tired of all so regular and worn
Intersections assault me with disdain
I suddenly feel more at home

My face is hidden, tinted
Yet my purpose and poise are fully conveyed
I do not come to be tied down with challenge
I seek freedom in its most basic form

I stop for a scene of utmost fascination
The full moon reflected on my understanding
As a lake laps calmly at the shore
Time is resting

All is well once again.

OK.... Did you not submit this as poetry? WTF is the person up there commenting on the photo for?????

Anyway... I like the images you convey IN THE WRITING. To me... it feels like some kind of spiritual flight in one night to set things right with the writer. Some kind of spiritual trip to bring balance once more. That's what I got out of it anyway. It flows well and has a definite beginning and ending. Well done.
