In a Field of Daisies
Strolling through a book
as though I was in a field
of daisies on a lazy summer
day reading a book,
I discovered that my
son was born on the same
day as Heavy Metal Cross-
Bow Hunting Rock Star
what’s-his-name. It was
the best day of my life. It was
a great day in his life.
It was a great day
for thrashy heavy metal.
It was a great day for ears.
And amps. And arrows
that kill deer. They look
up quickly and say “Whaa-”
and then nothing. It was a
great day for the word
