Camp Fire Time

Two day tropical winter camping trip. Secluded serene scene. Gentle breeze brushes skin. Take deep breath. Country air is sweet. Bird serenade warms the heart. We sit and sigh, loving the natural high. 

Venture out for a walk. See muddy wallows. Feral hogs are about. Death’s scent invades the nose. Flies buzz and maggots feast on hog’s carcass. Nature cleaning up. 

Back at camp we sit, contemplate. Suddenly, we’re boom-boxed by boisterous bass beats as city jungle  on wheels cruise by. Why can’t they appreciate and not defecate on tranquility? 

Nightfall comes. Campfire time. Up high, heaven sprinkles starlight. We get lost in the feeling of being free. 

winter rain
falls hard all night long
~tent spring leaks

what's that about your mama
she was't here but over there
for your first breath of air

Might Is Right

might is right and white is meant to rule
 with that mind set, tall ships sailed west
 rapists for the father-land
 Holy word in right hand
 to convert heathens
 while left hand stole
 and bled dry
 native
 souls

Devil's Dupes

dastardly demons
damnation deserved 
devil’s dumb dupes

Pompous Pretender

pompous pretender
poses purposely pious 
patiently preying
