Jeff Hildebrandt Waxes Poetically

April 27, 2011

Got this from Jeff Hildebrandt today:




Flint Eyed

He crouches on a grassy perch above the prairie;

Flint eyed, focused where each sunrise

brings with it the

comfort of yesterdays.


He crouches; silently seeking signs

in the cycle of sameness

but sensing sorrow.

He knows tomorrow

long shadows on short grass

foretell an end to what has been.


But for now, he crouches;

moist eyed

as sunrise leads to sunset.
