Howie Good

In the Throes of Divination 

A man not unlike you
or even me
who is camping
overnight
in the woods

wakes up
with a start
from a dream
of a bear
with dripping jaws
biting
his head

to discover
a bear
with dripping jaws
is biting
his head.
  
Howie Good says you might own guns and you might even own tanks
and you might be somebody’s landlord and you might even own banks, but you’re gonna have to serve somebody.
