Exhausted warrior
Watches the lamb follow the
Wolf into the mist
—-
As they disappear,
The wolf looks back, baring teeth
Into a big smile.
—-
Somewhere in the distance,
The Lion rises to His feet
And heads for the mist.

Spiritual warfare
Isn’t visible . But those
Involved feel it all.

AUGUST 1976
I was listening to some reaction videos on the internet the other day when I "re-discovered" one of THE greatest and uniquely American songs I have ever had the pleasure of hearing. I forgot that Arlo Guthrie comes from a sturdy stock of great folklorists-namely his father Woody Guthrie. I associate Arlo with "Alice's Restaurant", so much so that I forgot he is an exceptional storyteller in his own right.
