To the wonderful Island of Endless Play.

It lies off the border of ‘No School Land’
And abounds with pleasures, I understand.

Alone in the walks of life

Lets go and meet
My blue eyed savior
Today because I believe
That he is God

In-Between Nowhere

O nowhere, golden nowhere!
Sages and fools go on
To your chaotic ocean,
To your tremendous dawn.
Far in your fair dream-haven,
Is nothing or is all…
They press on, singing, sowing
Wild deeds without recall!

From: On the Road to Nowhere by Vachel Lindsay

And his bare ankles grimy, too, as they:
Cross-hatchings of the nettle, in array
Of feverish stripes, hint vividly to me

From: A Barefoot Boy by James Whitcomb Riley

Why wasn’t I looking? , he wonders what was wrong with me,
Inside this mirror lies, a beautiful image reflecting,

Not always using bait
Just cast a line for what you want
Then settle down and wait
