Council Rocks
Silent sentinels, they guard a place sacred to the history of Southern Arizona. Few go there. There are no signs to lead the way. It’s down a rugged dirt road, several miles from Middlemarch Pass in the Dragoon Mountains. Once these mountains were the perfect hideout for the fiercely independent Chiricahua Apache.Continue reading “Council Rocks”
The Insurrection
The storming of the United States Capital on January 6, 2021 was both outrageous and preventable. Never, in his wildest dreams, did Jefferson Davis ever envisioned the Confederate flag being victoriously paraded through the US Capitol. Yesterday, it happened. Some referred to it as another “Day of Infamy.” We will be sortingContinue reading “The Insurrection”

Baja Arizona
Baja Arizona We call it Baja Arizona, the land beneath the Gila, Could we be so lucky someday that we’ll see ya’? Mountains, deserts, our verdant valleys bloom, No matter where you go, Baja has the room. Aspens quake above the clouds, golden in the sun, Take a hike, ride a horse, ya’ gotta haveContinue reading “Baja Arizona”
The Package
The Package There’s a package ‘neath the tree, somewhere in the back, Hidden from our sight, is the ribbon red or black? Did it come from someone who couldn’t make it home? And however did that one so dear pick this time to roam? Shall we stoke the fire, keep the memory bright? Or shouldContinue reading “The Package”
Jose y Maria
Jose y Maria Jose and Maria wander in the night, Guided by a star burning very bright. Weary, worn and worried, baby on the way, Hoping they will find a path to a better day. Got to take the census, but do they really count? With their cares and worries, troubles to surmount. Do theyContinue reading “Jose y Maria”
Silver Hair
William B. Bogardus Silver Hair Silver hair, like mountain snow, Glistening on the vale below. Eyes that said, “I understand”, Always lent a helping hand. Simple man, no airs had he, Wanted all their best to be. Lived a life filled with Grace, Had no fear, his Lord to face. Always tread theContinue reading “Silver Hair”
I Never Marched
I Never Marched I never marched with Martin, nor crossed the Edmond Pettis Bridge, My people never felt, the lash that forced bondage. Never took a Freedom Ride, like Goodman, Schwerner or Cheney, Never faced a burning cross, nor saw a Black man hanging from a tree. Never saw the little girls, in Birmingham toContinue reading “I Never Marched”
Dancin’ in the Dirt
Dancin’ in the Dirt I never made the big time, nor raced the Astrodome. Just did my best like the rest, and loaded up for home. It didn’t matter where I was, on Sunday I’d be racin’. Stand on the pegs and gas it, no matter where yer placin’. In the desert South of Vegas,Continue reading “Dancin’ in the Dirt”
