10/31/2019

Halloween two-oh-one-nine

A Game of Snakes and Ladders

"A Game of Snakes and Ladders"

It’s like a game,
a game of 
Snakes
and Ladders,

some spend their lives
climbing ladders
up the corporate sticks
sliding all the way 
back down on their sore
sweet and sorry revelations
soap boxes thrown and burnt

New Spring

Oh, the springs run to the rivers
And the redbuds paint the banks,
As the dogwoods burst to bloomin’
And the cowboys all give thanks.

They’ll be dustin’ off their saddles,
Checkin’ cinches and their string,
When that range all starts...

He turned off the running water,
soaped his face not glancing at the mirror,
a long night ahead.

on the four walls of this rental,
not a good sign.
