Chain Of Bones
Jan 8, 2008
Yesterday I saw two vultures
Fighting over a dead snake in the road.
Hurtling down this mountain
Into the setting sun
They rose before me and marked my passing;
My time has not yet come.
~
This morning I saw a chain of bones
Testifying in the sun
That all bonds of the flesh must be broken.
In the end we all belong to trhe vultures
And if we truly have a home up in the sky
We must go there alone...
~
Out on this road a steel guitat is always playing
Mournfully upon the wind.
The miles are marked by abandoned ranches,
The rusting hulls of old cars;
The lifeless eyes of roadkilled creatures questionong
The reasonsfor our passing...
~
Fence posts and rusty wire
Won't keep Coyote from his supper.
His next meal is anything that crosses his path.
He is the eternal optimist.
He never sings in protest; he sings for life,
And to give meaning to the night.
~
In the cool light of another morning
I pass through this country, never to return.
The hushed creatures emerge from hiding.
The coyote picks up a chain of bones
And trots down the road with his head held high
In defiance of his inevitable fate.
