Best Philosophyfarm Poems
some days, I walk in the forest for hours,
everywhere I turn, they wish me well
little boys rise up on their toes to drink from the fountain,
the pictures in schoolbooks show benefits, for only a few
when I go to the farm to buy fresh eggs,
chickens gobble in refrain... just say "no" to drugs
when I ask the grocer what farm his pork comes from,
he sighs, and sends armies to attack my brain
when I raise my voice to slow the machine,
only those parts already rusted.... understand
only those parts
already rusted
understand
Sanctified
Red moon dominates the eventide landscapes
Surreal against the mid-winter backdrop
There is nowhere else to look
Magnetized focus
As she rises gigantic above the horizon
And I am held
Still.
Driving country roads of slush and solitude
Making my way
Home.
There’s something out there
In Coyotes secret world,
Stringing farm field to farm field
Forrest and river
Dotted houses set amidst
Lit up for all to see…
Passerby’s
Squatters.
Deer trails of ancient passages
Where others follow
While the silent winged ones listen
As they have forever.
Do they see me?
Encased in metal
Spewing fumes of ancient forests
As I race across the landscape
Faster than any coyote can run?
That our worlds meet at all
Are only shown in road kill
And sudden endings.
