exile

 
 
today i want to paint the color black

honesty is the basis of life
i seek truth

last nite i walk so close

an eight point buck
i can almost reach out
touch his july antlers
so new velvet like soft

in highschool i was voted
'most friendly'
i'm friendly still
yet....

now

those i'm closest to
come with antlers, feathers, fur

in this human world
i've lost my compass
