Me Against Texas

the angry Texas dust
just outside my door

admonishes me
berates me

eyes as big as the sun
claws of steel

razor sharp feathers
bare teeth

down to a snarl
we’ve knocked heads before

always with the same
death-defying result

bruised and battered words
everywhere

blood mixed with blood
blood-brothers

agreeing
to dis-agree
