a tale of tails, tenacity, and tedium, as told by me, usually barefoot and bellowing

Islands Of Childhood



The Island of Dr Moreau
The Island of Blue Dolphins
The Island of Okinawa*

Islands of my childhood
Showed me immorality
loyalty, cruelty and peace

As an adult the Islands stayed
Leaving me to prefer
The company of animals


*My dad was a World War II veteran and this was one of his many "tours".
