Poems

does not write

11SEP25

but still a scholar

the bell rings 
the bell tolls
let it sing
in your soul

to have hope
it is good
proclaims the pope
of the woods

moves at night
thru hill and holler
seeks to do right
& not the dollar

wears no white
on his collar
does not write
but still a scholar

we do the math
at that we're a whiz
do we think our path
is better than his

listen to the bell
as it swings
beyond the veil
waits the King

the promised land
full of hope
it is a big hand
that pulls the rope

I should be very close to putting out a new drone flyover video that consists of bush hogging on the same hill that the other 3 videos are on. I should get it onto you tube either today or tomorrow. I will be spending much more time in the holler over the next few months. I will probably put about 10 new videos up on you tube by the end of the year. I am waiting for the leaves to change color on many of the videos. And for some of the videos I am probably waiting for them to fall off of the trees so the drone can film what they hide.

The poem mentions the path that we all choose in our life whether we are aware that we are choosing it or not. So choose your path mindfully and stride forth boldly with a smile on your face.

Poems

the wisp of smoke

10SEP25

holds a clue

like a pea
in a pod
you get to see
a lightning rod

watch it burn
clever is the flame
once you learn
it'll never be the same

you are free
your sight is true
now the tree
is split in two

but can you prove
what you see
as bigfoot moves
to another tree

the wisp of smoke
holds a clue
the joke
is on you

in a way
you've been clowned
it's just another day
on bigfoot's merry go round

I was tempted to use “go head and bay – like a hound” but I thought more people would be more familiar with being clowned than the long loud sounds that you hear when you deal with hounds. It makes me giggle because in a way all the bigfoot studies kind of remind me of a pack of hounds on the trail of something that is impossible to catch. And what makes me giggle even more is all of you who are reading this thinking to yourself “that’s because there is nothing to catch.”

It is good to giggle early in the day or really any time. Enjoy your day. Smile and giggle and make other people do it as well.

bigfoot with video

or maybe just smirk

09SEP25

that’s more our style

it is a strange gig
the candle is lit
Ayolyn is big
enough to handle it

even more strange
travels in a glowing ball
they claim he can change
from big to small

will be much grief
if you prefer simple
too many strange beliefs
in the bigfoot temple

so don't go too far
may be better to wait
watch him from a car
going down the interstate

this poem read
or you can skim it
it's bigfoot speed
there is no limit

it's strange work
it'll make you smile
or maybe just smirk
that's more our style

I will go over some of the some of the bigfoot concepts that I reference in the poem just in a case there is a reader out there who has not watched a ton of TV and you tube content and read several books on the big guy. As always this is to inform you. This is not an effort to convince or prove. So you are welcome to read and be amused or informed or whatever your reaction may be.

Among the people who claim to communicate with bigfoot there is a general consensus that the bigfoot do not like the name bigfoot. Chuck Jacobs makes the point that in comparison to their size the size of their feet are not that big. He also very often ends his talks with the phrase “It is time to add a few more cars to the back of the crazy train.” So it seems like he is at least aware of how crazy this all sounds. And many of these people seem to think that bigfoot prefers the name Ayolyn. I’m not sure if anyone knows exactly how it is spelled. I am not sure if anyone claims to have had it exactly spelled for them. (In my mind I am picturing one of those big fat pencils and tablets from early in elementary school.) : )

Some people claim that bigfoot can travel inside of a glowing orb. That is the glowing ball in the poem. In a Flash of Beauty video titled Paranormal Bigfoot: Harold and Cody they claim they saw a bigfoot turn into a glowing sphere. The interview is 35:32 minutes long. That is the changing from big to small in the poem.

There are kind of 2 main camps in the free wheeling strange world of bigfoot enthusiasts. One camp believes that bigfoot is a flesh and blood animal or being that is very elusive and good in the woods. They do not see anything paranormal going on. This group is sometimes referred to as the “flesh and blood hypothesis camp.” The other group of bigfoot enthusiasts are open to a lot more strange and out there concepts. They tend to believe that bigfoot is inter dimensional. They believe that he can disappear. Many of them claim to communicate with bigfoot thru telepathy or mind speak. Arla Williams in Oklahoma claims that she has experienced walking with bigfoot and that he made both of them disappear and that they walked by a group of birds unnoticed. She says that when they uncloaked the birds flew away. There are also many stories of bigfoot healing humans. This group is usually called the “paranormal camp.”

For years the Bigfoot Research Organization in California would trash any report that mentioned UFOs, orbs, bigfoot disappearing, only seeing part of bigfoot moving along and all of the other really strange stuff. Many of the people that worked as researchers for them and compiled the reports have said that most of the reports had to be trashed because most people actually reported seeing something that the BFRO deemed too strange to believe. And those same researchers said that many of the people making the reports struggled with having seen these things. And they wanted to know if anyone else had seen anything like this because they were troubled by it. Thom Powell talks about it in his latest interview in a Flash of Beauty interview.

Into each day only so much rain should fall. And into each blog post only so much craziness should be loosed on the reader. In other words we have probably walked far enough down the crazy bigfoot path for today. Let’s make our way out of the woods with a smile or smirk bright enough to bless all of those that are fortunate enough to cross our path.

Poems

just ask the shadow

08SEP25

behind the tree

together a rhyme
I try to throw
it is almost time
I have to go

I am Douglass MacCarthur
in the Phillipines
time to depart there
a sad scene

I tell no lies
you shall learn
a word to the wise
"I shall return."

those who know
they will agree
just ask the shadow
behind the tree

it is always good
to put true
just ask what would
bigfoot do

This may not be my best work. I am loading the car and heading out of the holler this morning. I hope that you have a great day and get your week off to a great start. And if things don’t go that great on your Monday there is still plenty of time to salvage the week : )

Hawaii

“Let It Be Sung”

07SEP25

in every soul

as a tribe
together we come
sweet is our vibe
sound of our drum

together we imbibe
all that is true
love we inscribe
on our pews

live in the winds
love the breeze
taught by our big friends
out in the trees

teaches us how to trigger
and have big guns
that hearts that are bigger
have more fun

a love that saves
from deep inside
it is the wave
that we ride

keeps us young
how we roll
"Let It Be Sung"
in every soul

I am in the holler this morning. We had our family reunion in a log cabin that the Ruritan Club rents out for meetings and get togethers. It is beside a historical mill with a water wheel with a creek running beside it and sometimes over the wheel. We have met in this building for years. So there is a strong memory and presence felt there of those that have gone on. It was somehow made even more beautiful by the heavy rain that fell on that already beautiful lush green setting and landscape.

There was one incident where they encountered a nest of bees by the creek. At least 3 people were stung. And they were stung more than once. This was all reported to me by a young man named Lucas who is 5 years old and in kindergarten. He has obviously inherited the gift for storytelling from his great grandfather and my uncle Mutt. He informed one of the other family members that he escaped because he ran “like lightning!”

Uncle Mutt kept us all entertained his entire life. I remember that when he would get too tickled telling a story he would pause. He would turn his back to you while he regained his composure and straight face and then turn back around and continue his performance. It is my hope that that sweet funny spirit of his still lives on in this blog.

I am linking a video by Jack Johnson and some of his friends. We talk a lot about vibe in this blog. I have always felt that this song has an excellent vibe. I used to have it in my iTunes back before I had ever seen the video. I can no longer access it because of the rules that Apple has about not being able to remember your password from 3 devices ago. I like to try to keep the blog positive so we will not dwell on that : )

I think the song is from a surfing documentary film that they did several years ago. I am going to list it in the Hawaii section of the drop down menu. But as I watch the video I do not recognize any Hawaiian scenes. So a lot of the surfing footage was actually shot around the world. But Jack Johnson does live in Hawaii and is really involved in a lot of the aspects of the scene there. And he always seems to have an excellent vibe. But I will let you be the judge of that.

Here is the link to the video.(3:50)

Enjoy your Sunday . Try to make someone smile!

Poems

we may be blowing

06SEP25

into a breathalyzer

is the veil a wall
or is it a curtain
we claim 10 feet tall
are we certain

it could cloak
and plain disappear
when it mind spoke
our brain could hear

looked into its face
thought we saw a grin
took us to a place
that we'd never been

we may be knowing
and we may be wiser
we may be blowing
into a breathalyzer

I didn’t leave for Virginia yesterday. So I am heading out this morning. I hope you have a great Saturday.

Poems

our flag always waves

05SEP25

Reminder: Woodbooger Festival , Norton Va 26-28SEP25

honoring our friend

may be in caves
always in the wind
our flag always waves
honoring our friend

are the stories true
decide as you listen
it might make you
wonder what you're missin'

as the crow flies
not what you expect
people question if their eyes
are seeing correct

you may find
what has been found
and wonder if your mind
is actually sound

will give you a gift
like a bee sting
will make you sift
and question everything

I am packing and loading the car. I am returning to the holler for a family reunion. I am taking the drone but will probably not shoot any video for the blog. The leaves changing into their multiple colors should be just a few weeks away. I will probably try to catch a lot of that in the next videos. I will probably make several stops and try to recon the locations that I want to put in videos.

I hope that you have great weekend!

Poems

over the earth

04SEP25

they all go

over the earth
they all go
know its worth
more than we know

can't be trapped
or put behind bars
able to adapt
to where they are

able to take
all that Heaven allows
refuse to wake
inside a house

what they've got
they carry in the wind
know luxury is not
anyone's friend

luxury is a tune
read it and resist
because pretty soon
you'll need it to exist

I have a 7AM medical appointment this morning. I have to check in at 0645. Have a great day. Smile a lot.

Before I go I will give you a quick reminder about the Woodbooger Festival in Norton VA that will run 26-28SEP25.

bigfoot with video

Thom Cantrall video

03SEP25

out of sight

bigfoot is a concept
dark was the night
reason he is kept
out of sight

knows humans are strange
locks the door
Indians used to roam the range
are almost no more

Moses in a basket
in the reeds
bigfoot does not ask it
has all he needs

the help we would give
there is no doubt
that he would rather live
and do without

ten laws from Sinai
in Moses's hands
Bigfoot's soul can fly
because he understands

try to protect
and love all
and try to respect
above all

A Flash of Beauty dropped a new video yesterday. This blog is big fans of their work. Most of the videos that we provide links for come from those guys. The video is with Thom Cantrall. There are many things that I like about the video. I like the tone of his voice and his demeanor. I like the story about his father having problems doing simple math problems but still being able to order almost the exact amount of lumber and materials to build a house. There are some videos that I kind of dread to see come to an end and this was one of those.

As always we will let you come to your own conclusions about how much of what he says you want to believe or buy into. He mentions Arla Williams and Barb Shupe several times. A lot of what he talks about they also talk about in their interviews and books. There is also a man in Arizona named Chuck Jacobs who tells very similar stories about his experiences with the “forest people.” He states in the interview that his own family laughs at him so he hasn’t told them many of the stories in the interview.

Any time we link a video we usually try to explain that we are not trying to convince any one of the existence of bigfoot. Bigfoot is plenty entertaining and amusing whether you believe he actually exists or not. And really it is probably better for all concerned if he continues to live in the land of myth and legend. Everything seems to be rolling along pretty well under these circumstances. So as long as everyone seems to be happy why mess things up.

If you haven’t figured it out yet this is kind of a goofy blog. And bigfoot is the flag that we fly. If everyone starts believing that he is real. Then we may be forced to get a new flag : )

The video is almost one hour(59:45) long. I usually break the videos up into smaller chunks and try to do some type of exercise when I watch them. I do this for 2 reasons. It keeps me more alert and I don’t feel like I am wasting so much time.

Enjoy the video! You may be able to tell that some of the lines in the poem are inspired from his talk. And honestly the “dark was the night” line is a nod to Blind Willie Johnson and the blues song which now flies thru space on NASA’s Voyager Golden Record.

Here is the link for the video.(59:45)

Poems

loathing the saws

02SEP25

hiding in forests

prophets and priests
the Kingdom come
marching secret beasts
to a different drum

quoting the laws
guiding for us
loathing the saws
hiding in forests

angel wing feathers
heavenly powers
they all fit together
in this world of ours

impossible to try
to reach an accord
who wears the tie
and holds the clipboard

on they go
strange and large
impossible to know
who is in charge

come with a ton
of questions and doubts
but sure are fun
to think about

The Norton VA Woodbooger Festival will be taking place 26-28SEP25. It starts at 4pm on Friday. The festival will be in downtown Norton and also up at the Flag Rock recreational area on the mountain. At this point I am planning on attending on Saturday.

For those of you who did not work yesterday I hope your week gets off to a good start. And that goes for those that did as well.
