 (In Protest of the use of explosives for terrorism)

 

Paris, France. Wednesday September 17, 1986 Tati Discount Department Store 3:28 pm

Blast. 53 wounded 5 dead mothers and children.

 

The report of a one hundred and five millimeter recoilless rifle

echoes through Big Cottonwood Canyon of

The Wasatch National Forest of Utah

gently awakening avalanches

rumbling through snowfields

above the timberline

of a sleeping Brighton and Solitude mountain sides

snow shifting, sliding, slicing, slamming, snapping

down among hundreds of year old pines.


Loose Items O.K.

 

So Listen!

The National Centers for Disease Control

unveiled a $20 million “hot lab,”

a super-sealed facility

for the study of

The World’s deadliest viruses,

including pathogens “far”

more dangerous than

AIDS.



  Morning Light

 

Morning light,

revealed the gently falling snow.

 

Darkness unveiled,

Stole silently, stubbornly, assured of resurrection.








How It Should Be

 

Some men grow

and they go away to war.

My friends and I

we went to ski.

It is how it should be.


                                  Disco Bars

I am

just a child

of the sun, moon, and stars.

Sitting with my beat up brown,

Stetson hat in

Buffalo Bill’s Disco Bar.





  Fox

 He said,

“My name is Vondall- but

you can call me Fox,

been all over the world.

 

Lived in Germany in the service.

 

From Oklahoma, if

Ya ever been there

you’d know why

I live in the Vail Valley,

but everyone calls me Little Joe.”


  Jaguar


Been living here
. nie on ten years

for the past two
tho I still love her.

Wolf

Been to Alaska
where the nights are long.
You get into alcohol

or Jesus

Restless Spirits, Harnessed Spirits

 




    Wyoming, early morning prairie dews
seep deep enough, pooling and reflecting
a wild chestnut stallion's eyes.

His hooves kicking pebbles rippling
little waves, flowing and trickling in to streams
of mirages dissipating into noon day vapors
and pastured greens of rattle snake plains.
Today's Song
"Wild Horses," Rolling Stones
