In the vast plains of the mind, where thoughts intertwine like threads of gold, The herd gathers, a sea of souls moving in unison under the gray sky, Looking with fear and misunderstanding at the one who dares to be a solitary star, That soul that carves its own path through the labyrinth of silent shadows. It is not...

Cowpoke by Michael R. Burch, circa age 16 Sleep, old man... your day has long since passed. The endless plains, cool midnight rains and changeless ragged cows alone remain of what once was.

Sleep, old man... your dreams are not...

Perhaps you hail from verdant coastlands, or from rolling hills blanketed by trees, or from the lofty perches of the mountains, or from the banks of some strong river. And though I was born in marshy coastland, and have known the comfort of swaddling trees, and felt my heart surge at the glories of the mountains, and been hypnotized by the hidden...

As the sun turns blood Red in a dark empty sky, on the plains of Megiddo 4 horsemen ride by, Of biblical proportions much blood to be spilled, revelations played out and prophecies fulfilled, Then along the horizon God's angels I seen, as mankind wished that somehow the slate they could clean, But the Earth's being flooded by...

Racing toward the deep blue horizon, Chasing the golden sun across America Expressing wonderment at the vastness Of the Great Plains, distant farmhouses Dwarfed by gigantic silos awaiting harvest Tall soldier-like windmills standing guard While cattle graze, tails twitching like metronomes To the beat of the clackity-clack road noises.
