On a lonely hill Above an emerald green valley Indian Country Scan the sky Two Skyhawks roar in low Whistling death Napalm Screams Choppa Choppa Choppa The supply bird Pregnant Guppy Skyhawks, Rockets this time Keeps them hunkered down We rush to the LZ Chopper lands, Dust stings our faces A PFC steps out StarchedContinue reading “Mail Call”

Hey Ron!
Hey Ron! I heard you crashed on Twitter Spaces, And wed at Disney of all places. What about those books you banned, That tell the story of this land? Hey Ron! Have you seen a Drag Queen Show? Maybe you should hafta’ go. Is your pronoun him or her, Or do we have to callContinue reading “Hey Ron!”
Wisdom From A Stool
You might think that I’m a fool, a-sittin’ on this stool, But I ain’t broke no rule, and I never have been cruel. Hard Knocks is my school, Bud Light is my fuel, and I’m as stubborn as a mule. I don’t know so very much, and I never had the touch, This barstool isContinue reading “Wisdom From A Stool”
Torches
They held their torches way up high, no one thought to ask them why. They rallied for their nation’s pride, they sought to put their loss aside. They disparaged those who deviate, but proclaimed they had no hate. They saw the world through their own eyes, and thought themselves extremely wise.Continue reading “Torches”
Unclimbed Mountains
Unclimbed mountains beckon me, to a place I once roamed free. Miller Peak and the Carr Falls, the echo off the canyon walls. Trapsing through an Aspen grove, such a place for me to rove. Red-tailed Hawk on lifted wings, listen as the wild bird sings. Pure spring water from aContinue reading “Unclimbed Mountains”
Thoughts and Prayers
He had a sweet smile, you could see for a mile. Her ponytail just danced, like pixies that pranced. Not a cross word, was ever heard. Their sanctum serene, away from the mean. Now cards and letters and prayers, tell us that somewhere someone cares. Flower bouquets so fragrant andContinue reading “Thoughts and Prayers”
Ketchup
Ketchup Ketchup on the wall. What a way to fall! He can’t get out of it, He threw a hissy fit. It’s never a good look, When they throw the book. A crying shame it is, False records for his biz. Stormy ain’t his type, After all the hype. If he don’t make his bail,Continue reading “Ketchup”
Half A Mile From Lone Pine
Half a mile from Lone Pine, a thousand more to go, This lonesome old highway sure makes time go slow. Crossed the hot Mojave and the High Sierra range, The scenery is different, but I still need a change. Waitress at the truck stop said the road ahead is good, Said somedayContinue reading “Half A Mile From Lone Pine”
Book
I am right, I am left and somewhere in between, I document all the horror that the world has seen. I tell about the pain of living differently, I patiently explain the struggle to be free. My words express my ideals so carefully thought out, And why the status quo has left me with someContinue reading “Book”
Massai
A shadow dances on a canyon wall, where once was heard the bugle call. His moccasins tread lightly o’er, the tangled trail that lies before. A warrior of a long-lost band, the last to wander in this land. They shipped him to the Everglades, though he wasn’t with the renegades. SomewhereContinue reading “Massai”
