Thoreau Song by Cloud Ruins

Cloud Ruins pays respect to a fellow traveler of another era.

Thoreau once argued, in a polemical essay, that those who commit themselves to indoor toil - without finding solace and respite in meandering, perhaps dérive-like walks - should commit suicide.

Words are from Henry David Thoreau's Walden; or, Life in the Woods.

Cloud Ruins is a symbolic offering to The Cloud. The ruins are here and now, not merely to come in post-apocalyptic fantasy. As the Cloud grows, so do the ruinous remains.
