Photograph of a yurt taken in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia.
There once was a nomadic ger-dweller
 who had no garage, attic, or cellar.
   But what it lacked in space
    it made up for in pace
 when ger turned to baggage from shelter.

Photograph taken in the Parsi Temple of Baku, Azerbaijan. 
One who doesn't feel 
   a lot at home anywhere
 Begins to feel a little
   at home everywhere.

He sees not strangeness 
   in strangers --
 No more than he sees
   in himself.

Any one place is not
   greater nor lesser
      than anywhere else.
 
Lands of gold and riches
   are as likely devoid of 
      authenticity - of soul -
   as impoverished places
      are dripping with it.
