About Me

............................................................ ............ web site: http://www.coyoteaftermidnight.com ............................................................ .............THERES A WIND BLOWS THROUGH WEST TEXAS
Theres A wind blows through West Texas
Where upon rides the song of a child
Con Sangre del Agua de La Oglala,
(whose blood is of the water of the Ogallala,)
Y Piel de Las Arenas de Los Llanos.
(whose skin is of the sands of the plains)
Whose bones are of the Grandfathers of the Kiowa and the Antelope,
Whose marrow is of the ashes of the Buffalo.
With The Feet of the Side Winder, and
Eyes Fathered in Midnight Lightnin
And Soul born of a Tornado.
Theres A wind blows through West Texas
Born of El Llano Estacado.
Spirit Brother to her Temper,
Respecter of her Father,
Admirer of her Fury,
Supporter of her Purpose.
A Thirsty Child Poet chasing the
Distantly Illusive Windmill
Through a High Plains Mirage.
While describing its Swirling Symmetry
In Carefully Enunciated Rhyme that
Sometimes Convulses in Time with the
Syncopated Beat of the
Thunder Beings Ancient Drum.
Dust Devil in Nature,
Tumbleweed in Truth,
Rambler to the Lady,
Stray to the Herd,
Lost to his Family,
Found:
Beside the Coyote.

If every action has an equal and opposite reaction,and being my nature to insist on the cup never being less than half full, I'd say the good part of feeling bad is that as you heal and begin feeling ...
