A One Eyed Golpher In a Cactus Patch

A One Eyed Golpher In A Cactus Patch He travels beneath the sod off the spiral scene Feeling a bit frantic from the chase he gasps for air Only to shed a single tear to help numb the inner pain Searching for bread a warm place to lay his head Out comes the cactus patch to claim it's latest victim Blackened walls that squeeze it's head so often will bleed A one eyed golpher in a cactus patch Outside with the coyote's howl their fever pitched scene One lone golpher searches for grass but that never lasts There's a battle brewing with mother nature's storm now brewing There it appeared this strange cactus patch out of no where Running head long it collides with the needles formation May need of some rest on a long awaited vacation While scrambling for morsels of bread on the ground Ouch ! You could be a try polite to one famed golpher who is out of sight Let's learn a lesson all strangers here I preach Where to lay your head may seem so out of reach
