Déjà Vu

I ride a stumbled path
Beside the broken glass
Through the deserts of blown grass
Without fence or hedgerow

A solitary walker waves me down
Do I know the way he asks
Certain that he has passed this way before
But where are the fields of folk
Where are the farmers workers

I tried to make a laugh
Without thought or purpose
Through the void of explanation
Without doubt, deliverance or benediction

Thanks he said
I’ll be on my way
I may be back again tomorrow
He did not say,
And I for certain did not follow
