Coyote
Coyote grins in the night
ear tingling howls, locate their kill sight
or did they rumage another dump site
A Crafty Survalist at peace with the night
Shy, inquisitive, Owners of the dense brush
They hide and laugh when I may “mush”
A part of nature I couldnt hush
How to belong to a part of nature I did never own
Into the forest into Wilderness is grown
A snort of the pig
A twitch of a cottontail
Bear tracks of blacks
so shy their hardly seen
The Cry of a female panther
like a women on a scream
I dream of a Freedom Wagon
I dream of a dream
That I could make it on my own
When I didn't seem destined to make it to 13

SUMMER OF LOVE
Torbid lake
Serene shrill
Stillness; opaque
A furnace of a summer
Rumage through the trees and foliage
Rake and sift nature, for a selfish sake.
We all lose blood of our ancisters
We all lose in the end.
We all keep this sacrament in secrecy.
We all do nothing. Void of intent.
Weather of war.
Patriotism in cloth and bigotry
Uneducated enemy. Unhealthy lifestyles.
Unafraid, because we remain unaware.
Remain in denial.
Seasons change, climate coalesces
Geography is slowly rearranged
As is my focus on something new and strange
A focus on a dot to obsess
We all have reasons to run – to regress
We all hide.
From each other
And ourselves.
