Journey Back to the White House

the cold north winds
wrapping a chill around shoulders
standing in the valley
mountains above
a horse is running along the greyhound
a falling deer on the side of the road
pickup trucks
muddy wheels
barbed wire fences
country cows
barn yard whores
waiting for a new trucker
smell fresh pecolated coffee
I prepare to revisit the river
staying alone in the white house
bought a used CF Martin guitar
starting to stretch strings
pull guns & roses "Patience" to play
I wake wonderful
I am safe
no monsters beside me
no noise
just water trickling off the tin roof
finally home
