A Poem

I’m miserable for adventure

There’s lines that stain my brain

Like every nation

They exist only in our imagination

They separate us from our true nature

Wanderers

Conquerors of the unknown

Searching for a place to call home

In a group or alone

We roll over every rock and stone

Until we find

Where we’re not alone
