Buffalo Sunshine

Originally written Friday, September 15, 2006

Thoughts for a Friday afternoon


An iron buffalo

Contrast to

the animate shepherd dog- pounce!

Take a turn;

lights are green

Here are lines

and asphalt which

demand blood as a sacrifice-

we give it what it needs.

But the sun is shining yet

and birds are wheeling

so are these tires.

Whistles I to the blurred trees.

The bison hasn't moved an inch

I continue my decent

to valleys and deserts

and views of

the sheen of crow wings.

Yellow. Stop. Go.

This is how I go

my thoughts and I

to work

Thoughts for a Friday afternoon.
