Smoky Hoss Poems

I am not a good poet.
For, I am neither purely good,
nor purely poetic.
However, I am a man,
...

How could anyone ever truly
Define great poetry?
Factors are so many that contribute
To the way each person does hear-feel-and see.
...

Stars aglow in the night sky
Pass so quietly by,
Is it us or them
Who return again?
...

The road
With its load,
And so the path
Granting its wrath-
...

What would we want with a god of no mystery
A god so simply contained
Within the limits of human history?
...

Oh, where to find
Great moments
Of nonrecordable time -
A place
...

There is no wind here
Just a turning of the air -
The fossil has been formed
By something no longer there.
...

There is a place the spirit goes
Where the wild wind blows,
Where none are bound
And only freedom to love is found -
...

They came
They went,
All along the cell's
The prisoners wept-
...

Going somewhere special
Or just living an ordinary day,
Makes all the difference
Of what I wear along the way -
...
