A Jack Kerouac ode, to satisfy my millennial beat vibes.

‘NOTHING BEHIND ME, EVERYTHING AHEAD OF ME, AS IS EVER ON THE ROAD’ – ON THE ROAD, JACK KEROUAC

Sunset rolled a riot,
A beat across the road,
Apocalyptic wanderings,
Burning chills for freedom,
Mad for ideal life we sing,
To hell with responsibility we lack
Nothing behind forth and forget,
Taste the sheering beauty Jack
Our wanderlust souls will shine,
We are not lost we march,
Everyman melting fools
Blame the world you ignore,
Misunderstand us lock your doors,
We ignite generations,
Blazing legacy, for eternity

On the road you will see.
