Not Wasting Youth


I am high up on a mountain, actually a butte, in central Arkansas.  Who knew Arkansas had buttes. I am with a several college kids, my oldest son and my lover all asleep in the cabin.  It’s wet and thick with fog and quiet as a long cigar.  I am outside getting the lay of the land.  Wild thing sing tunes in the woods.  We are here to build sculpture.  Young kids are good for an old soul, reminds me of The Grace that allowed me to outlive my youth.  They sleep and I marvel.  Youth is not wasted on an ancient old sculptor.
