Leaving

Shelter myself amongst landscapes
From the radiating drama
That leaves deadly bruises and scrapes,
I'm preventing further trauma.

Leaving everything behind,
All complications disappear,
To commitments I have resigned,
To sit in nature without fear.

    Sitting in nature without fear
    is the art of a Buddhist taking a midnight walk.
    To me landscapes are paintings
    reminders in the center of a city
    that nature exists somewhere out there.
    I speak from experience, midnight walks in nature
    leave scrapes and bruises if you walk in fear.
    Is the radiating drama; of nature or man?
    And is there a difference?
    Interesting poem.

      By landscapes I meant nature, different types and vast scenes of nature. I meant the radiating drama is of man and IT is what leaves the bruises and scrapes, which is a metaphor for emotional pain. So what the first stanza means is that I'm sheltering myself in nature from the emotional pain that humans cause. I am not familiar with Buddhism so I've no idea what you speak of.
