Leaving Home

Clouds race across the ceiling
above the now-fallow vegetable-growing
alluvial plain I call home.
It's come to grow on me,
Salinas has, yet there's not
a bookstore to be found.
The crops and crowds flee
for the holidays, follow the thermals south
as geese seeking feed.
And I, frivolous wordling,

begin my plans to follow.
