The Writing's on the Wall

The/ / Native | |American on\ \the wall--

Noble\ \ profile, | |alongside a / /woman's breast;

Another / / face, \ \on another \ \wall adjacent;

The / / mating | |in the clouds| |, Lone Star State mound

In | | dried cement:

All I \ \see is the \ \artistry of my \ \ mind,

Always\ \ sorting | |through life's / /clipart.

Even to | | the white \ \snakes that | | slither along my page,

Ravenous\ \ to eat my| | every word.

Praise the \ \snakes

That eat the | | garbage in the writing.
