DEAR ALASKA

 We were settlers of a faraway land 
traversing roads all at once foreign and familiar.
Do you remember the nights spent
foraging for food in stranger
supermarkets? We seasoned red meats in dimly 
lit kitchens and marinated our hearts 
in the rush of escaping reality . 
We were crafting recipes for a future 
we didn't know would never be made 

We were weekend warriors, wild by nature 
and nothing was impossible for us 

A drive of four hours, three bridges ,
two podcast and one place that will
always carry your spirits in its name.
It was never too far when you were
the home waiting for me
on the other side .
