at least the butting bison
are less visible
having taken on
more culturally acceptable ways
to woo women their way
way back in the days
at least
every man’s every woman’s
sexuality was understood
and honored
i heard the elder say
“full moon and empty arms”
a fond memory of long ago
oh the flail of the flying fish
trailing a satellite close ahead
i know the man made
i want to know you
perhaps i never will
tonight, for now
i’m walking in Wonderland dreams
dreams of coming home
