Poems

do not assume your values

15SEP25

are the same

bigfoot is as humble as can be
scripture's power in his hold
he is the bumble bee
as the flower unfolds

he may scare
at first sight
but his only care
is to do right

he will allow you
to leave as you came
do not assume your values
are the same

makes quite an impression
once you've known him
has no possessions
to own him

I hope your week gets off to a great start! Sometimes Mondays can be a challenge. I hope this time yours goes well!

Poems

there is no vacation

14SEP25

with this muse

sometimes bigfoot steps
leave tracks behind
the faith is kept
an axe to grind

having no clues
that's the rub
they are the dues
for the bigfoot club

kind of funny
a club with rank
is there money
in the bank

behind a tree
bigfoot is all kind
he can see
if the check is signed

like a lightning strike
no time to wait
kind of like
an offering plate

there is no vacation
with this muse
he'll put your imagination
to good use

so get set
to do it again
can I get
an amen

don't get nervous
about our big friends
with them the service
it never ends

that's the sasquatch
their style is a trip
the angels watch
a smile on their lips

let your soul sing
every word you utter
was that an angel's wing
that I heard flutter

Enjoy your Sunday. Make someone smile. And yes that someone can be you. It may be the most important thing.

Poems

they already know

13SEP25

too much about us

the answer is no
nothing to discuss
they already know
too much about us

want to be friends
we always insist
and they pretend
not to exist

we probably fail
every type of test
as they set sail
not that impressed

all of the sasquatches
listen to our tune
decide as they watch
not anytime soon

my confidence I keep full
for me it's easy to see
it must be the other people
the problem can't be me

Enjoy your Saturday and weekend. Try to infect someone with your smile today!

Poems

all of the sasquatches

12SEP25

say “not for me”

it is my life
it's passing me by
cuts like a knife
makes my soul cry

it is new fangled
flowing and clean
it is a rectangle
a glowing screen

the case is beveled
to attract you
the work of the devil
is to distract you

not holy not fair
its song is sung
it slowly lets the air
out of our lungs

bigfoot watches
stays behind the tree
all of the sasquatches
say"not for me"

as the screen glows
and imparts information
it seems nobody knows
the art of conversation

There is a new video in the drop down menu. It is in the Drone Flyover Videos section. If you are on a mobile device or tablet you can access the menu by tapping on the 3 slashes in the upper right hand corner. They will take you to the home page, the drop down menu and the blog posts. If you are on laptop or desktop the menu should be across the top of your screen.

In the Drone Flyover Videos section the newest video will be at the bottom of the list. My next few you tube videos will probably be bigfoot festival slide shows. I have enough photos from the Red River Gorge Bigfoot Fest 2025 to make 4 or 5 you tube slide shows. And I am planning on taking some photos at the Woodbooger Festival in Norton VA. So they will probably make their way on to slideshows as well.

I have several projects planned to shoot with the drone. A lot of those may be on hold as we wait for the leaves to change in the next few weeks. Once the leaves do change I will probably be filming just about every day to take advantage of the window before the leaves fall from the trees. Some projects I may shoot with the leaves and look at it on the computer screen and then decide it would be a better view of the actual subject without the leaves. I guess that is enough of me meandering on about what may or may not happen : )

That is not really worrying but one of my favorite quotes does talk about worrying and the fact that not every thing happens that we think is going to.

My life has been full of terrible misfortunes, most of which never happened.

I hope that you have a great Friday and weekend! Try to make someone smile.

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.

In reorganizing the blog I am including the Harold and Cody interview in this post.

Here is the link to the video.(35:32)

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 : )

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.
