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
