The Order of the Great Pyrenees (Poem)
“I renounce with compassion
the protection of the spiritual
gangsters and pimps
who have kept me
and all the terrified
foundlings
from breathing in life
and barking from
the gut
HAUUM!”
This was composed while camping for free, via Harvest Hosts at the Gold Acres Ranch in FL, which raises sweet fainting goats. It is about overcoming the fear of having no gang or pimp, but rather the knowledge that, even were we to die alone on the field of battle, opposing Molech and all his works, we would at least know we were part of an invisible community of heroes, who give no quarter to coyotes, wolves, or violent strays.
