To live as an artist,
but die as a man
The dust forever chasing,
—what heaven began

if caught by its magic

Specious
Wyoming sure lacks common sense
To believe in Trump, but not Pence!
A bankrupt and liar
Can prey like a friar
Wyoming is spacious yet dense!...

No Mercy
wind slashes wyoming wheat field
blades of windmill spinning furiously
animals find shelter under bridge
rain slams down, breaking stalks
no mercy...

The Indian Sign
Silent but deadly,
the judgment of eyes
One look as your warning,
intensity cries
When meant for you only,
all others to miss
The glare in the staring
—unholiest tryst

Searching For Crazy Horse
Remembering to forget,
the road opened in front of me
Remembering to forget,
the past drifted away
Remembering to forget,
my today my tomorrow
Remembering to forget
—my tomorrow today

The Holy Road
Your voice like smoke,
it calls from the distance
Luring your enemy into
winds of deceit
The clouds of your fathers,
hiding hailstones above
Disguising the truth
—as you lie in wait

War Party
Dancing out from the shadows,
our spirits release
The night from the day,
fresh paint on our cheeks
New fires in the darkness,
where drums beat once more
As voices call inward
—their whispering roar

Mr Les More
Les More owned big fancy mansions galore
Then bought half of Wyoming, but kept craving more
Now his real estate dwindles to six feet by four
It's all he now needs; no less, no more

Wyoming
A man of Wyoming ate cantaloupe
While watching some galloping antelope
To his aunt he said
You must truly wed
A right proper woman just cantaloupe...

Word Massacre
Ravagers of Poesy,
spear points of denial
Mongol hordes of fancied verse,
spewing dense and vile
Free words they herd together,
to drive toward a cliff
Trampled once they hit the ground
—by verbal hippogriffs

The Road To Heaven I80 Wyoming, Usa
The road went straight on
With the ribbon drifting as a heavenly song
They call it the “Road to Heaven” going up high
Stop and look at how it leaves the earth for the sky
So in your wandering take a look to see
I80 in Wyoming in Utah you’ll be.

Ballad
Wind
To go in a circular, spiral, curved
Or crooked course
Breeze, zephyr, puff or bluster
Claptrap, horwash or baloney
Tornado, Cyclone or a disaster
No matter how you put it
If your vehicle stays on the road
In Kansas, South Dakota or Wyoming
You have more than met your goal...

The Last Roundup
An old cowpoke from Cheyenne, Wyoming
Got a hankering and set out a roaming.
He got as far as Montana,
Choked on a banana,
And returned in a box the next morning.
There was no one waiting to meet him,
No family or loved ones to greet him.
He was laid in the dirt
In boots, jeans, flannel shirt,
And an old faded checkered bandana....

Football
Football
A new dawn has come
He showers and puts on his lucky tee
Sits and waits in his lounge chair
Times has come
He kicks and runs
Catches and tackles
His blood pressure goes up
All from his recliner chair
He cheers and howlers
Rants and raves
Dammit!!
Yes!!

Uranium Won
Selling uranium to Putin through CFIUS
Made less social sense than contracting syphilis
Unless to grow a Global reset chrysalis
Aiding American transformation abyss.
Putin may well employ Wyoming yellow cake
To cower Europeans with nuclear bake
Candled with cancerous cumulus mushroom clouds,
Granting his covering Ukraine with a death shroud....

Thoughts of the Empire State Building
They talk about me in Cincinnati and Kalamazoo
In Texas, Idaho, Wyoming, Russia and Timbuktu.
They like my photos but few travel to New York City.
Where the Broadway shows are spectacular and witty.
A skyscraper, what is that? Asks a child from Chad.
I’m the Empire State Building, beautiful and bad.
Decorated each December in lights of green and red.
Come to New York City, see me, and get amply fed....

Personification
Ambidextrous On Migrants
Liberal or conservative
the questionnaire asks
about migrants.
Fred’s in the middle.
Asked about The Wall
he writes that he sees
nothing wrong
with hungry illegals
crossing the border
looking for work and
nothing wrong with
the Trumpeter Swan
sending them home
as long as no one is
killed in the process.
But okay to give them
Wyoming and Cheney.
Plenty of room.
