Today, I write nothing

My minds at a loss

blank stare at the pages

I’ll gather some thoughts

gray skies all around

My rays gone away

sweet rain in the heavens

I think I’ll …

Add cumin not spooned, but shook with a shake
The most cayenne also, that your stomach can take

With a swift crack of the crop

He neighs as he rears, and hoofs come down hard
Pounding the ground thump with a thunderous bolt

It starts out with three or four ‘supervisors’ (usually the beer drinkers) directing the mass confusion and stumbling around trying to help the roughshod process turn into a smooth running,

I lost my ‘Friend’ when I was away in the service,

"Blue" was his name
We were both in love with the outdoors
Always together romping afield
searching for birds, Each, we adored….

He…

Washed down and rubbed
Put in for the night
Can’t wait till tomorrow
As so, this is our life

Not just a field

Just a field that most will see
so much more than grass for free

Just some blades they may view
gentle sways of graceful you

All of a sudden an owl came swooping down from my left! Scared the shit out of me!

Pulling onward and over
with heavy weight in tow

I’m scattered on plains
cast far across rows
or is it the prairie
where my soul blows

Spontaneous, instantaneous about to implode

to my heart
before frivolous
chambers burst

to my love
it’s undying
shielded thirst

to pulsed aches
scoured with
yearning pains

to my feelings
as they’ve
failed once again …

Her strata
quaked and trembled.

I’d let you go.
untouched unseen

I’ve watched you not grow to this point.
Your wasted and the slowly demise.
