Prairie Solitude

Wolf wander Idaho for Elk shot by emigrants
the bald eagle soars in our imagination over desolate landscape
crooked river of betrayal weave through soggy marshland
overflowing wells of sorrow drown proto-chicken habitat as
trails to nowhere lead in circles of dusty deceit and cameras
take ego self portraits in the shadows of morning.

The Quetzalcoatlus awaits the dawning of a new
age of dinosaurs and methane rich atmosphere when
dragons flapped vinyl wings over lonely traitors.
