but don’t look under a rock

& please wipe your feet

One Good Shot

men could wear mittens

to sleep with a scorpion

while the room rattles

 

the earth may tremble

regardless a train whistle

North in a small hole

 

a tunnell’d canyon

One Tin Box One Wet Ox

in an arroyo

a bookman’s pick strikes a cache

no ambush is set
