Aliens and the Mountains
you could live in that cabin
and gaze out at the mountains every day
smell the sweet, simple wildflowers
and feel the cool breeze on your cheeks
you probably wouldn’t like it when it
snowed
white stuff up to your belt
soaked socks sticking to your frozen toes
but at least everything would have a
glow about it
I passed this cafe in Montana
called the Two Sisters Cafe
it had a rainbow flag on the roof with
a sign that read Aliens Welcome
there’s a Three Sisters’ Cafe in another
city, maybe in Canada
these people love women, nature
aliens
and the mountains.
