mark abel - adam (arcata) كلمات الأغنية

drive past dear old humboldt state __
hillside haven for alternate realities, the north coast’s coolest girls
memories of sweet surrender, nude beneath the redwoods
gently fading now. …

head for the java hut just off the square
step over the sidewalk scruffies who kissed off the material world
now here’s my man zeke;
we’ll take our kayaks to mad river slough
floating on god’s creation, the sеabirds wheeling high
so near and yet so far from the answеrs that we seek
we want to contribute!
so many pathways, how can i be sure?
zeke laughs at my mistrust of the universe

gina is teaching kids in the slums of east timor
gary is gonna be helping a scientist to map the great pacific garbage patch
phil is doing free web designs from a storefront in harlem
chuck, the most brilliant of all, went back to the family farm in garberville
__ a one_crop town. (cash crop, you might say.)
kimberly sold out and moved to redmond;
the graduation lexus must have sealed the deal
and that pretty much covers my crew

what now?
praise be to idleness, zeke says
born too many centuries too late to be a roman patrician
or a hunter_gatherer striding through the fields of ancient eurasia
i love him like a brother, but i have a different destiny

clarity’s elusive in this misty backwater;
jobs are scarce, girlfriends scarcer
at long last, this may be the hour
when i ponder the unthinkable
“california is an island drifting far from the continent,”
matthias mckinley, my favorite professor, said
“you’ll never understand america ‘til you have seen it all.”
soon i will leave the patchouli womb

i don’t know where i’m going
but it’s probably far from here
maybe they need me in cleveland or in dying detroit
i’ll aid their transition to the post_industrial age

i will remember all the fun we had
chasing utopias and rarely sad
picture the setting sun over the pacific’s horizon
it will inspire eternally
