Hillbilly Country Feud--

snow 
stampede 
suburban 

ghosts of factories 
shotguns checked shirts, red necks, 
rust the vultures waiting for  

memorial alabaster

When I Hear the Words Wrong, I Hear the Words Wrong

My grandma told your grandma
Don't you set your head on fire
Come with me to the Casbah
Stay out of the funeral pyre
Talkin' 'bout shotguns, shotguns,
Blasting us away
Jockamo's killing our loved ones
Jockamo nee nah nay.

Kaos

Like tossing your soul in the air
And having shotguns
Blistering it into pieces.
Filling up 
On ethanol 
And fall where they may.
Seeing the future 
And deciding to go anyhow
Or staying home.
Filtering emotive urges
Into a piss cup
In your couch comfort. 
Stay glassy, like
Soda pop,
You'll be ok
Or not.

Crazy In Rural Ohio

When lamps are lit,
thumb-downed farmers
smoke on their porch's,
whittle away a churning simmer
of angry ghosts.

Some bury the urge
to slip into insanity, some plant it.
Some clean shotguns long unused,
others go to bed fuming.
A few walk into the dark
following a slow burn.

In county towns,
stone asylums are erected
to contain the fires.

The Dysfunctional Family Welcomes Autumn

It’s Autumn!
Throw open the Windows
Get out the Leaf Blower
What falls on the Lawn
We’ll just Mow over
Get out the Shotguns
To clear out the spiders
Be careful about Grandma
In the cellar making Cider
We have new neighbors
What’d you say,Hoke?
Our cleaning may scare’ em ?
Screw Em’ if they can’t take a  joke
Light the Fireplace
And see if it smokes.

Mayor Gone For Last Prayer

Shotguns for blood search
Of all places a church:
Not Muslims for Jihad;
Christians who the guts had…

Christ they know like priests
But this murder makes the feats.
Some ten million to share
After a job just unfair,
Each three million dollars,
Soon their shirts gold collars…
 
For ten years now Mayor,
James gone for last prayer:
His worth. The Betrayer
Through one Michael Heyer.

Somebody Forgot To Train My Wagontrain!

Damn arrows are flyin'
We're circled and taut,
Got shotguns and six shooters,
You should see how we fought!

They burned sixteen wagons,
Took fifty-odd scalps,
Abducted all our women,
And two of our Ralphs...

Why did they take 
Those weary old men?
Maybe they're gay,
Or just had a yen

To burn a few white men
The Ralphs were whiter than most...
But, I supposed by now,
They're merely Ralph-toast!

Dieway

soaked hands in Gasoline
pouring rage of kingdom rein.

Mother graffiti hangs her picture
frame,
shotguns hang in her doorway.

crawling backward,crying at anything that moves,
I discover that garbage cans listen.

rewind
rewind
rewind!!!

hearts are lean on wheelchair island.

the only man
is the man
who carries the bag.

slow stretchable strides behind the wind and rain.

wheels begin to spin at the luck of holding.
