It was the young man's pleasure
to dig for buried treasure
with shovel in hand
he suddenly planned
to dynamite, just for good measure
I came upon a
blood smeared road
Of flesh and skin
and crushed bone
I collected the vision
of what it could be
Piecing together
deaths mystery
The town appeared
shovel in hand
Scraped the remains
threw down sand
I said a simple prayer
For the bloodstained smear
The man of a tiger
he is a fighter
A man of a lion
who saves me from dying
on his heart I knock
hard like a rock
I want to get through
if its the last thing to do
I will shovel in the snow
you already know
to stand out in the rain
with not much to gain
only to find
that hes not really mine.

Lost lonely shadows
Cast and rise
Sunken hungry empty
Lowered eyes
Graying under aging skies.
Lost in translation
Shovel in tow
Just relics and fossils
Still deeper you go.

Now gazing up
All you see is a star
And the distance between you
... Is all that you are.

Mammoth cold this morning.
There’s been an ice-storm.
Creaking and walking
boots talking
shovel in heavy hand.
Robins pounce on frozen worms.
The wide spade
snatches at the frozen turf,
its red plastic mouth scooping up
small glacial heaps.
Soon I tire, soon I sag,
flinching beneath the wind's frigid lash.
I throw the shovel down,
defeated -
going to toss bird seed,
feed those robins,
maybe save the life
of a few stiff worms,
make hot cocoa.
