The bold waters of Indian Creek polish skipping stones , cool waters
harbor Yellow Perch and Smallmouths , all manner of aquatic fauna ..
Sand bars glisten in the afternoon light ..
A chorus of nature's musicians sing to the coming of night ...

The life current of Georgia flows along this vital artery ..
Creek Indians fished , hunted and bore testament to their precious waterway ....
Full Moons still recall the laughter of young native American children along her banks ...
The shouts of intrepid spear fishermen haunt the calm Summer air ,
twilight becoming harbinger for many a ghostly tale on beechnut silhouetted darkness , mosquito ravaged nights ....
Creek hunters running from Oak to Pine , whistling messages along the banks ... Bobcats howl on foggy Dawns while Herons hold still , forever maintain their silent watch ..

The Dedpoet
Whether I'm out on Military Drive
With my Ruca cruising the street,
I can't stay alive
Without that special meat.

I'm talking bout early morn,
Looking for a place for some comida,
When you need that taco like food ****,
You need it in your Vida.

Yeah, you have buevo ranchero,
Or maybe some bean and cheese,
But I need me some vaquero
To fill my Mexican needs.

So make me a taco,
Make it chorizo and egg,
I'm just a typical vato,
Cmon, please don't make me beg!

And now you know about my favorite dish,
Eating Mexican is like a granted wish.
From the San Antonio series of poems for my city.

I could spend a day
Wandering the beach

Or examining small rocks
In the sand

Wouldn't know
What to do
With ten grand

And where is my female friend
I won't meet her today

That's fine with me
And I'll be okay

head of marble
feet of clay
I can't weep
nor can I pray

I cannot tell
where moisture lies
tears come unbidden
to my eyes

down my face
the water flows
though my features
are composed

I'm too numb
to feel their grace
too frozen still
to wipe my face

so I'll allow them
I'll be still
I love you, dad

and always will.

Very upset right now.

My dad appears to be fine
But i have a certain sense
of foreboding

It's all in God's hands
But i have had trust issues
all my life

Please forgive if I read slowly
or not at all
I can't stop the tears
