He Hikes to Nowhere




He plots the plotless route to nowhere.
Hikes arranged to be disarranged.
He plans not to plan,
Or organise his disorder.
His nose is followed over fells
And through woods.
Uncertainty and mystery -
Not a route plotted to infinity.
No map dare tell him where to go,
Or which place to avoid.
He goes where he goes - and nowhere else.
He knows where he's arrived... when he's arrived.
When something is seen the distance,
He rarely knows what it's called,
Or who died there in 1523.
He doesn't care about the hills' contours,
Or the linear momentum of his bootsteps.
He likes not knowing where the fuck he is,
Or where the next village can be found.
This unknowingness is the point
Of his lack of purpose.
