Ambivalent



Ambivalent
Callous conscience
People make  plans
The gods laugh
Waiting to hear the silence
Alerts of opportunities lost
 Lurking on the edge of darkness
No  Escape from paradise
The walls are to high
Everyone is sorry about something
As a cowboy rides a trail
His horse high stepping in the snow
Clinging on his lifeline
Head hanging low
Snow builds even on his hat 
Covering in white
What once was black
Hand not gripping the colt 45 this time
Army issued in 62
Some wars never end
Chasing ghost in the snow 
The Air is cold 
frozen above the ground
So cold it crackles 
The cowboy brings his head up
Just to spit icicles
