The ranger
begins his long march
which is a trespass
across strange earth.

Whispers
of the foreigners
to whom he is the foreigner
are silken whistles

which he misses.
This is a long march.
This is a strange earth.
I am my own stranger.
I suppose we can call this the first of the culture shock poems.

real title: He & I

I was trying to pick out my favorite lines, but I couldn't.  All of it is perfect. :heart:
