Son down upon the Suwannee


 Son down upon Suwannee


We must return to this bend

The place of quiet where the

heart can mend

Drink in with deer and bear

The nocturnal stare

Just beyond reach of fires glow

Glide the Chipewan slow

Past moccasin on 

Tupelo tentacle 

medusa sirens resembling

Drawing us where sand scrapes

Of leviathan warn, watching coldly

assuming us worth rolling

In the tannic black mare 

Yes, we must go there.
