Just go do it yourself.

A man reads a story to get lost in it.
But what happens when he actually does?
No longer able to tell what is real.
His lamp let’s off a slight buzz.

The reality of society.
We think our lives are so boring,
So we read what others do for us.
Unable to hear the waters, outside our door roaring.

A teenage girl lays in bed watching videos.
She watches as Logan Paul,
Travel the country side of Japan,
She might as well stare at drywall.

Experience traded for convenience.

    This line reminds me of my summer home. I’m a bit nomadic, spending winters in California and summers in Alaska. This last summer, I had the privilege of living in a tent within earshot of a wild river: https://erdman31.com/2018/11/19/alaskan-fall/

    I’m glad to have found your blog.

    Cheers
