Looking Across: A Tribute to Bigfoot
Now, as lightning pitchforked in dark pastures of sky
above the remote Bluff Creek wilderness,
dwindling sanctum of strange man-ape beings,
I felt a kinship with those lost hearts
beating hugely against the fall of time.
And as night gathered in the long canyons
I took the headlamp which would light me down
and signaled out across the miles; so, linked
at least in ceremony, Bigfoot and I moved
in separate sorrows along our evening trails.
This poem was published in Mountain Gazette, July 1975. I discovered it in the front of the book Bigfoot by B. Ann Slate and Alan Berry. This is an excellent bigfoot book. I plan to do several bigfoot book reviews later in this blog.
