Poem : "Big Trouble" My Dream!
“My dream”
I am not as yet
that blind
There was this
a huge fence
Circling the premises
We were in
Big Trouble.
We were looking
For the entrance.
There were plenty
Hanging signs
Wow so many
But we did not
Take the time
To read them all.
Not looking
for a specific one
that's says
“No trespassing”
Not like it
Was not posted
Everyplace
We were actually
Lost you know
It’s not enough
to figure out
Anything
This here is lost
without a trace.
Take a second
To think
Put your foot
In our shoe
Lost somewhere
In the boondocks
Neither of us
got a clue.
I can feel it
everything
about this place
Is warning
that we were
In big trouble
The back roads
Of America
It’s not always
friendly territory
It can sometimes
be a very spooky
treacherous place.
We don’t know
Where we are
Or what we are
Looking for.
Light was fading
very Fast
Was at least six
Hours ago
Was the last time
We filled up
our Gas
This is the only
place we saw
In looking
both direction
As far as
the eyes could see
I looked at my
Friend
He looked at me
We already knew
This was no
little lost bubble
We where
definitely in
Big trouble.
Then suddenly
There was this
faint Bark
A little distance
Away.
The daylight was
Wearing thin,
It was all turning
Dark.
Someone was
Coming
Their Body
language
Was not friendly
Footsteps gave
A hint of
the tension
As his dog
a pit-bull
Silently
Sniffed and stared
As he drueled
out the sides of
hIs mouth.
What are you
doing here?
A voice shouted
You are
trespassing!
Standing on
private property.
Speak quickly
He said
Or I’ll turn
the dog Loose
Either that
or a bullet
will lead to
The lynch Man’s
Noose.
Quickly I said:
We are heading
Down south Sir
Can’t figure what
Happened
Shameful to say
we have lost
Our way
Trying to get to
Georgia before
“Christmas day.”
The man said:
This is a dirt road
You crossed over
That big bumps
and Huddles
With a red and white
No trespassing
Sign
You boys are in
Big trouble
Stay in your vehicle
The police are
already on their way.
This sign is always
Visible at night
Even more so
In the day
This was the time
Of our life.
These two people
Looks mean
One of them
From the look
on his face
The likes of
our kind not
regurarly seen
No soon after
The Police arrived
The man said there
They are boys.
You came at the
Right time
We thought that
This was the year
Santa finally sent
The correct toys.
The Police said
Place your hands
On top of the car
Frisked us, cuffed us
Drove a little way
Stopped at the
Entrance of
the property
he pointed
and said
Read this sign!
You boys had just
Committed
A biblical crime
In these parts
it's called the
perfect Sin.
The sign read:
We don't call
911
If you believe
in life after death,
stay on this road
pray as you are
Coming in!
Because you
are in
Big Trouble
“My Dream”
Bless.
