redheaded gods November 08, 2018

Well, one of those poems that just happens to work quite well with a picture that I took in Tulsa around 2014 or so. I love when the present art coincides with the art I created in the past.
redheaded gods

If this, all of this is nothing more
than a dream inside some god's
enormous red head, I must,
most certainly, question
his or her creativity, ability
to imagine even the simplest
of creatures . . .  this gray gnat that
terrorizes my coffee cup, what's
its motivation? Or the thousands
of angry raindrops that slam
into the sidewalks of Norman-town
with no thought for their own deaths?
And I won’t even try to understand
what he/she was thinking
when drawing from the muds
the likes of us two legged thingies.
Come on, o' wise and powerful gods
can’t you do better than . . . . this?
