Live each day with joy and hope. “The wild and tamed”
The wild and the tamed
A Poem by Coyote Poetry
Is is better to play dead or create fear?
Some men don’t fear death.
They don’t believe in destiny or final solution.
Life is to be lived.
Cigarettes, whiskey and wine is their song.
The cold and lonely road had stole their heart.
Dead in heart and soul leave no pity or time for love or salvation.
Salvation is for the men yearning for peace in a world seeking
death and destruction. The tamed heart yearn for calm and peace.
Hard places to find in a life.
The wild side is easy. Woman want little from you.
Always places to find people on the dead-end road.
The taverns are filled with people who accepted less.
Some of us danced on the wild side and the tamed life.
I’m older and I have accepted the tamed life.
In sweet and wild dreams. I’m drinking the whiskey. Singing the old songs.
Giving death the middle finger.
It is sad being the lonely man waiting for death.
Death will come. I wondered often. Is what we do in life meaningful?
Or are we just foolish men pissing into the wind.
Coyote
I love the two pictures and also really love these words: “I’m older and I have accepted the tamed life.”
and I dunno – the word “contentment” kinda comes to mind here
Peace amigo

Contemplative. Is what we do in life really meaningful? Only if you touched lives, stumbled and fought, laughed and cried, loved and hated, won and lost, and still can afford to smile in reminiscence.

The world seeks power
Women demand the world but settle for man’s destruction in some cases
Salvation is for the man, woman who refuses to compare himself to his brother and think I’m no worse than he
Death dose not have to be lonely, I’ve watched my share die, I’ve seen incredible beauty and despair. I have never seen anyone die violently. That I’m sure would alter my perception- but I have hope in the faith that is graced to me that I could bear it
I love that photo of you but the baby simply usurps you
