Animals
Listen to the night.
Four legs I run or wings I fly.
Wolves, tigers, canes, and eels.
They all walk the forest.
Living the life, given to them by destinies wheel.
Some fly in the sky,
Others live down in the depths of the sea.
The wild will always mystify.
Through wind, water, fire, and earth.
They will always run free....

Have You Seen the Cotton Man

He dwells in another day
he will never let you into.

His face is white
but not bright - yellow age
has mildewed his smile.

The house on the hill
is not his,
but he won't let you visit.
Jailhouse rock
will keep you dancing
behind be-wilderness bars.

He forgets to like you,
he thinks you're cotton
to be picked.

Children run from his knees',

kids know that the cotton man
has a secret plan
and it don't include us....

His Own Tragedies

getting no where
rather fast.  
I can't seem to
live down the past.
The wandering stray.
Such the untimely outcast.
His closest friends, or  are 
they his enemies.
Dragging him down 
into their dirt.
Won't they leave him
to his own tragedies?
For all he wants to do 
is walk the straight and narrow.
Their intent on pushing him 
off the path.
And Now he's locked out of his house 
and all he wants to do is take a bath.....................
