on a good day the trash is the same
as any other day trash is trash on
any given day

i got to thinkin about trash

take it to the dump every saturday
routine one two three four take the
trash out the door on and on...

along came two writers who got me to
thinkin about rabbits, doves, and trash

love and life trash

mankind abusin love and life like trash
takes the embryo to elderly and burns them
into oblivion the abortion/ignore them burn
torches life's landscape with abuse and fear
makes for livin hard and dyin a welcomed relief

by the way, doc
get that needle out of my brain to suck me
death to trash i am a baby in here i want to
live i will live

by the way, mr./ms. oh so young and beautiful

i am elderly, seasoned, worthy of respect and
care and, yes, love

love and life trash

so where does the circle begin and close to
complete the cycle of dreams?

conception for humans as surely as the birth
of a rabbit or dove and oh just look at what
they give us for the price of stopping to look
and care just to see them maybe even protect their
homes environment

it's ours too

till mankind sticks a needle into
Mother Nature's ozone layer and bleeds
it to torch-level murder

all the while the circle closes anyway the rabbit
the dove all of Mother Nature's children love of life asking
nothing for the beauty and natural of it but a simple nod of

hello and care for one's home

amazing...

Well, Outlawthunder, I'm a-guessing you're a straight talking cowboy alright.

Seriously though, it is an honour to have partly inspired this. Thank you for thinking and for sharing.

nice.
Sombody's trash is other's treasure. Do not blame trash...which is something coming from us but is not something coming to us.
Seeing double makes me dizzy. Reading double makes me faint.

enjoyed as before.
