Carranza Road...

Poem Artwork

It cuts the Pine Barrens in two

Straight away to end in Batsto

Horse & buggy use in past centuries

Pitch black, no light to speak of

At night only the devil haunts…

 

The western end Shamong

Crazy to live too near the devils song

Humans are encroaching in a throng

On his on place of refuge left

Fear you should where the devil does belong…

 

Animals stay clear, sensing his presence

They understand his omnipotent power

Never go into the Barrens alone

You may not come out in this world

All will be heard from you is a dying moan…

In the End: Apocalyptic Poetry by Debra Kraft

In the end they'll all be dancin'--all them ones that didn't die.... Dance with me in the shadows amidst the lightning and the thunder, and all that nu-cu-lar debris. See the big bang from the other side, and then open that cellar door. Go down into
