Alone In Wait

Lonesome as I am
Slowly I ride
Along my course
Leaning back I stride
Clip-pity- clop-pity along
Allowing the reins to go free

Boots out of stir-rups
Hat pushed way back
No rhyme or reason to my walk
For now no one is near
If only my mare could talk
Another story I would hear

All human life far away
Alone I do my best
But now I don’t want the rest
Just me, myself, and I
Alone with the twinkling stars

Now hoofs, dirt, and sand meet
So quiet I can hear
My own heartbeat
A peaceful time to think
To pray
To allow things be
Waiting for my Judgment Day

So come to me
My Lord
I am ready to greet

A Slow Sad Song

My horse is old and gray
Seen many a better day
Swayed in the back
Steady and on track

I too old and gray
On my back life I weigh
Now I slump
Still prodding along
Singing a sad, sad song
Wondering did I ever belong

Did I leave a mark
Was my short ride worth much
Should I hide
Slowly, lowly as I ride
Concealing my face
In disgrace

At times I feel I did my best
At times I took on a sorry rest

Why am I still here
I feel alone
Cold and sad
Completely mad

Clip-pity-clop
Will my time ever stop

Clip-pity-clop
I now ride my course
With very little love
With very little force

Were to I wonder
As I ride
Me and horse can no longer glide
So out here alone we hide

Riding along this old trail
Pondering did all fail

I hope not
But I am not to judge

I used all I had
And now I am sad

Clip-pity-clop
Will I now close
Can I now stop

Down the dusty trail
No longer wagging tail
Did I win
Did I fail
I do not know
But the clipping will cease

Leaning back in the saddle
Fate I now straddle
Hat I pull back
For the last time

Pity-clop

The Wicked Fence (1)

As I kneel
I spy

To your body
I can eye

Twenty-five feet away
You are making
My day

I crawl along the
Picket fence
Soft grass under my knees
My heart pounding at what
It feels
To what my two eyes
See

Lying there by your pool
A sight for any man to drool

Naked you are
A beauty by far

Breast and thighs
For my peeping eyes

This view so great
Oh if only you were
My mate

Your body all tan
And tight
This I will remember
Later tonight

To fence end I crawl
Quickly I depart
So swiftly
I almost fall

Over and over for the next
Week
My mind on neighbor
I lust
I think

I’m glad no one saw me crawling there
This must have been quite a sight
But the burden I must bear

Down at the corner store
You I see
But clothes
You now wore

As my eyes
Ran over your body
And breast

You smiled
Tilted your head
To me you coyly said
Grass stains come out
With a little bleach

From Above

Compassion for fellow man
                            I think not

Though we say
Think we do

In times of trial
We come up short
Of the mark

As we always have
And always will
From the very start

Anytime
At any start
Deep within the
Human heart

We care only
For self
Of one

But that was
Known and
Why we were sent a
Son
