To paint a cloud by Keith D AllisonI wonder, how it's done
I stand upon these public lands
staring into the sky
The mighty warrior
he is in flight
his mighty eye
his prey in sight
He dives upon the land
the squeals of death echoed
I faced the mammoths
whose head rises above the timberline
To my left
the clouds grow black
being pierced
by the lightning bolts
To my right
the force of white
pours forth, billowing high
gathering strength, from the aqua sky
the mighty eagle stretches forth, to flight
it's prey, covered in crimson drops
life and death
in this Rocky Mountains high
I stare upon the sky
wondering how
does one
