Outdoor Consumer


I live in my own place now,
So if I want to build a fort
and sleep on the couch
and eat Nachos at midnight
and ice cream for dinner
I will


And if I want to spend my money
on skiing and Rugby
and books I'll never read
and trips I'll never take
I will


Until I realize
that my legend-
my adventure
is not found in plastic
or paper
but in a quiet sweaty moment
where I am alone
with nothing but the desert wind
and the whispers from the dust.
