Wanderer's Soul

A Sonnet for the Vagabond

By Robert MontalbanoPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

Look upon the very land we sit upon

As it spins, it heaves in many ways

The Wanderer wakes with the dawn

Watching an inferno begin to blaze

Wanderer's step out of the bounds

That tie mortal men to the coil

Even if being chased by fire-laden hounds

That blood will never soil

The ground is the only respite from flame

A Wanderer digs deep to find thine being

When found, there is no shame

When lost, all others would be fleeing

A wanderer never sits still for long, for why should he?

Sulphur-backed bitches could never look within thee.
