Driven Thoughts

I guess it’s too late to live on a farm
I guess I have country in me somewhere
I guess this 47 mile drive to and from work won’t persuade me
I guess this winter will end and corn will grow soon
I’m guessing I’ll never go into a cornfield alone…or stare too long into one
I’m guessing pigs don’t wear Tim’s or J’s
I’m guessing roosters don’t pack 9’s to jack the pigs for them
I’m guessing the coroner don’t have to come around often
I guess there is no hawk on hawk crime
I guess that smell isn’t death
I’m guessing my son would gag from the smell
I guess he may wonder why that lawn jockey is so black
I’m guessing I’ll teach him about Jocko Graves
I guess I’ll include the underground railroad as well
I’m guessing these public schools omit that from curriculum now-a-days 
I guess finding a needle in a haystack is really hard
I guess with my luck I’d get stuck
I guess Animal Farm was really about politics
I’m guessing I’d get more out of reading it as an adult
I guess George Orwell was a quack genius
I guess I’m not the only one corny
I guess we could have a field of sunflowers
I guess that would be beautiful to see
I’m guessing that would lead to farming more things
I guess that would be another thing on the honey do list
I’m guessing that would take me from writing
I guess there are no slam poets screaming in barns
I’m guessing I won’t slide the door open to see
I guess that would make my day to find one
I guess she would have a lot to say about words scraped into the walls
I guess we would share homemade lemon aid and talk about how peaceful it is there
I’m guessing she’s written about injustices
I guess I may have a silent protest in reflection on my way home

KonciouSLea Written because the drive to and from work is truly thought provoking and. . .I’ve gone there.
