unrestricted
the drone of the jap 4 cyl
spreads the daily dose of dread across rural america
it was a wake up call
2 CUPS OF COFFFE
one shakes him from sleep
two gets the intestines churning
number three takes the shape of talk radio
churning the hate, fear, confusion, love, strength, serenity
in the bowels of his mind
News of the day, chewed, swallowed, digested
expelled over more coffee at work
FORD F-250 10,000 lb. GVW HAULS HOME
263 lb. of six fingered farmer
one gallon of bovine growth hormone milk
past empty silos and decaying bans
turns off the county road up the gravel
drive to his own little piece of heaven
