Highway 93 Revisited
Ectopic Wanderings
Born far from where
I was supposed to be,
nearer to the end
I chased the beginning
throughout my life
—forever going home
(Red Lodge Montana: September, 2021)
18kt Memories
I’ll wear a Rolex
once I’m dead,
as accolades surround
The past what’s left
of what was right,
buried in the ground
Beneath my dreams
above my hope,
one wish to tell the tale
Of life now lived
with death in charge
—new gold among the shale
(Ouray Colorado: September, 2021)
As Darkness Fell…
I got in the door
when no one was looking
and stayed
as the world looked away
I crashed every feeling
borrowing dreams
awake
in the afternoon’s mourning
(Ely Nevada: September, 2021)
Together Alone
Wisdom and love
in conflict they wed
to sleep through the darkness
—alone in the same bed
(Gardiner Montana: September, 2021)
Rent To Own
Once you move past
the imagery and symbols
vision stays constant
—connection secure
(Thermopolis Wyoming: September, 2021)
