since i eloped with my little dream
from a straw-roofed farmhouse
reed fenced in a chinese village
i have traveled far and wide
moving from city to city
sheltering my yellowish soul
in an asphyxiating basement
or a dramatically drab apartment
or a democratic duplex
always in a rented room
until i am now privileged
with more words than worth
to jump this hot and huge market
trying to find a home of my own
where my soul can settle down
without commitment to any mortgagor
