Enjoying reading some poems and stories from one of my favorite writers, Jim Harrison. Felt inclined to share, knowing full well his style is not for everyone.
Barking
BY JIM HARRISON
The moon comes up.
The moon goes down.
This is to inform you
that I didn’t die young.
Age swept past me
but I caught up.
Spring has begun here and each day
brings new birds up from Mexico.
Yesterday I got a call from the outside world
but I said no in thunder.
I was a dog on a short chain
and now there’s no chain.
