Texas
by

Boiled and baked
in sun like meat.
High winds and
blistering heat.

Barren prairie
treeless grassland.
Blowdirt accumulate
and Sand.

Mesquite and
yucca do abound.
Tumble weeds
now surround.

Coyotes, rattlers,
and horned toad frogs.
We import all
our firewood logs.

Winter brings the
blizzards snow.
Deep and blinding
obscure the roads.

Left two here behind,
Afraid to search that I might find.
Yes they're my ex's.
And yes they live in Texas.
