Blackmail's Last Ride at Chalk Creek Gulch

relentless, horse
up to its knees in grass,
I inhaled, filled my lungs
with a hemp sack of heavy
wooden decoys over my shoulder,

behind for blackmail's last ride,

feral dogs and
unpublished mineral

hides, barter for snowshoes
and blacksmith tools, approaching
winter solstice of '83, pioneers here

let loose a literacy barrage outlining
the defects of the timber and stone laws,
she gave me a hit off her molybdenum pipe,
I inhaled eventual uses and benefits, high authority
between miner and assay, even today some pose the
question, was it arranged destiny?

Belleville stove
emitting old-world
aromas, she asked
what I had in mind, "hemp
sack of wooden decoys, blackmail's
last ride at Chalk Creek Gulch, fat mallards,
widgeons, canvasbacks and pintails on the beaver
pond, flush blackmail out from the willows,"

we f***ed
in the tippiness
of that canoe, her
pussy scraping against
the side of mine, blackmail
crawling on its hands and knees
behind us waiting to see what is ahead,
flush blackmail out of the willows,
