alpas: to become free or break loose
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

a life of drifter
just gasp of air
starting from scratch
free mind, wild soul;
feeling something like wings

climbing to the hollywood signs
pale blue jeans, vintage beehive hairstyle
jamming punk rock song in country radio stations
all around i hunt to break free

descending scottish highlands
argyll jacket with tartan skirt, hair braided into knots
dancing to ceilidh folk tunes;
brave myths amidst fairytales
all around i search for tranquil

roaming in dark alleys of cambridge city
beige shawl over apricot skirt, pinned bouncy curls
sipping milk tea at tea house with  sherlock holmes volume
all around i dig escape

clicking pics in front of cheery blossom tree
pastel pink kimono, twisted fringe train rides for moss viewing; accompanied by subtle fishing
all around i forage joy

surfing into ocean waves under copper sun
sea shell adorned aloha shirt, hibiscus tiara
sightseeing tropical wonders beneath azure skies
all around i look for content

pieces of my heart all over
scattered home
rootless i am tied up
by moments not rope or words;
honey coated taste of wanderlust
