I get lost sometimes
Lost in wondering where I have been
And more lost in trying to find where I am
I once traveled the back roads of Puerto Rico
We counted the u-turns and teased our guide
Vamos
vamos
the drive to go is quite easy
yet finding the path is often not

cutting through rocks and mountains
engineers define roads of the shortest distance
but fail to observe the principals of least resistance
the natural path
as exemplified by water
is a meandering twisted line
where points are often left behind
and the inner path is littered with debris

civilized life is now not so easy
the path we follow is not mapped or defined
cows are corralled
sheep are herded
rivers are levied
where within the bounds does existence define itself
and where does itself define existence

the greatest engineering feat in America
abandoned and underbudgeted
corralled a beast that broke the levee
the pets drowned in oil
the survivors cut holes in their roofs to escape the shell of domicile
they called a home
and the water flowed free

the path of least resistance is now levied again
the impoverished have been removed and the realtors lick the boots of
the army
where is my path
what vision do I follow
how do I break the levees
