X Marks the Spot

Could it be a letter?

Secret sign — or better?

Treasure map?

Mindless Rap ....

Cat or Irish Setter?

Let’s dig way too deep.

(Cry until we weep.)

With dirty nails,

day-old mail

& legend-making leaps.

Try & try again.

With bloodied iron pen.

Change our stripes

with dreams & hype —

until we cry again.
