forgiveness
we snuck inside farmer moses’
pumpkin patch one early sunday morning
october moon hanging out
at about nine o’clock
we knew we had to be quiet
but it was the place to be
and between the three of us
there was a half-pack of camels
and a case of colt 45
the girls said they’d meet us there
right around midnight
but they never did show for reasons
we would never know
morning sun does rise
as do farmer moses & his boys
pursuing instincts with rifles in hands
zeroing in on blacked out trespassers
september two thousand seventeen

I guess the area of forgiveness is a kind of twilight zone, thought provoking.
it’s hard to say but perhaps
you are such a tactician. Sure you could work for the foreign office. hehe
I do not want to know what happened next
things are not looking promising for these boys….
