The Early Men

we had fire in our eyes
gusto in our mustaches
piss in our pockets
raw meat on our knifeblades

treading in the tracks
of Lewis and Clark           or
oh hell, either one
we saw a pointed motor boat
and its’ reflection
in a still pond
biting the shore

Maximillian dreamed a bear
named Strongmeat

Hephalump, a rubberized birchbark canoe

and me

I dreamed a miniseries
with one fuck per episode

(driving from Miles City to Missoula, 1986)
