Mick, Corral Bar, 1978
~CL Rawlins

Leonine, bearded, the prophet disguised
as a ruined cowboy drunk, pissed-in
bib overalls and the wreck of a stetson
nodding over a herd of drained beer cans.

Cries out of a helldream, spits his chew
on the sodden floor, sweeps the table clear,
calls through the clamor for a beer,
eyes wide, trapped-coyote wild,

Grabs Mitch by the sleeve and roars
from some windswept inner dark,
bitter, homeless, bereft.
"What have you done to my desert?"

WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO MY....... D E S E R T!!?

(Cora, Wy)

A poet is a liar who always speaks the truth.

Una Paloma Blanca

When the sun shines on the mountain
And the night is on the run
It's a new day, it's a new way
And I fly up to the sun,
I can fell the morning sunlight
I can smell the new born haze
I can hear God's voice calling
For my golden sky like gray

Una paloma blanca
I'm just a bird in the sky
Una paloma blanca
Over the mountains I fly
No one can take my freedom away

Una paloma blanca
I'm just a bird in the sky
Una paloma blanca
Over the mountains I fly
No one can take my freedom away

Once I had my share of losing
Once they locked me on a chain
Yes, they tried to break my powers
Oh, I still can feel the pain

Una paloma blanca
I'm just a bird in the sky
Una paloma blanca
Over the mountains I fly
No one can take my freedom away

Una paloma blanca
I'm just a bird in the sky
Una paloma blanca
Over the mountains I fly
No one can take my freedom away

Una paloma blanca
I'm just a bird in the sky
Una paloma blanca
Over the mountains I fly
No one can take my freedom away
