This was originally written as an application for a travel course on the beat poets. the prompt was 2 pages long, but the closest paraphrase is "what are the merits of travel, if there are any?" It was written as two separate pieces - a poem and a narrative of a car trip i took with my friend - that i spliced together into one piece, but with different fonts so you can read the whole thing or only its components. It's unfinished, since I only just started working on it and it isnt technically due for a while. I kind of just wanted to share it with the world.
