Poems

we are TV for bigfoot

28JUL25

we play his notes

a new week beginning
it is already here
somewhere bigfoot is grinning
ear to ear

that's how it goes
he has played us
he already knows
he will evade us

it is his turf
we play his notes
as he surfs
on his remote

we are not able
to find him as we wish
not sure if we are cable
or satellite dish

but evidently
we are just free
but on his tv
we are must see

we always take it
from that son of a gun
just hope we make it
into reruns

if our growing numbers
are any indication
pretty sure we will lumber
into syndication

I am still in the holler. I will probably return tomorrow. This poem is from a theme that I have used before. I posted a video at the end of May before the Red River Gorge Bigfoot Fest of Charlie Raymond, the founder and president of the KBFRO giving a presentation on bigfoot. In that video he made the statement that we are entertainment for bigfoot. That we are kind of like his TV. That statement has been made many times before by many other bigfoot researchers and enthusiasts. Many even suggest that instead of searching for bigfoot it is better to go somewhere you think they might be and just hangout and wait and see if they initate contact.

I am fully aware that there will probably be a lot of people that may read this with the mindset that bigfoot does not exist. And that is cool. As a matter of fact we have stated numerous times that is probably what the big guy wants and that is probably the best for all concerned. But to those of you who may be open to the fact that there is more out there than we have been told well maybe this will give something to smile about today and thru your week.

Bigfoot

my first bigfoot book

Red River Gorge Bigfoot Fest

May 31,2025

Here is the link for information.(Link removed after event.)

night in the day

a shadow
is the night
knows that slow
hides in sight

as it sneaks
thru the day
does not speak
it hides away

it is still
remains and lurks
the canvas it fills
like a painter works

it is where
mind rarely sees
like the blur
there in the trees

Try to take some time to look at the information on the Bigfoot Festival at Red River Gorge. It may be educational to just look at the list of speakers and list of activities. The line up of speakers is impressive.

The Kentucky Bigfoot Research Organization has been around for 3 decades. Its founder and president is Charles or Charlie Raymond. He has kind of been the ambassador for all things bigfoot in Kentucky for some time. He is also the author of Bluegrass Bigfoot. This is the 1st bigfoot book I ever read. I have read a lot more books since then. But that is still the book I would recommend that you start with.

Who better to write a book introducing you to the world of bigfoot than someone who has travelled all over the state and country doing it for thirty years. It’s a good first step into the world that this blog draws inspiration from. I still find myself going back to look something up in it from time to time. After you have read several books on the subject it will probably become a little more difficult to remember exactly which book a story was in. Or if it was in an internet podcast or video. At that point you are probably getting pretty well versed on the subject.

Hope this is a great day for you!

I am linking a You Tube Short that I shot at the 2025 Pope Lick Goatman Festival. In it Charlie talks about his new book.

Here is the link to the video.
