Conjured by memories while driving along the Russian River in Sonoma County, or was it near Big Sur? Nevertheless, don't we all engage in such otherization?

        


         Peering
       Up and Down
             the River          


        How strange
     The undone dwellings
 Along the river
How the wasted property
  Below the highway
       Unaesthetic
           Along
   the river

        How strewn
     The stoops, unwound
 Along the river
How toys boards cars litter
  Below the highway
       Uncouth
           Along
   the river

         How wretched
      Lives, dumb lives
 Along the river
How they hide inside
  Below the highway
       Unsocial
            Along
    the river

         How our canons
     Tumble and decay
 Along the river
How judgment winces, peers
  Below the highway
       Uncivil
            Along
    the river

        How I long
    To hurry heedless free
 Above the river
How low to have to peer up
   Above my dumpy home
       Unrestrained
            Along
    the river
