TRIBAL FIRE


TRAVEL MAP LINE MILES
I-40, 24,75

LEAVE TROUP COUNTY GEORGIA
AND THE CUMBERLAND PLATEAU
BEHIND

FIND WELCOME IN OLD BRICK
THAT REMEMBERS HOME

WELCOME COCKER SPANIEL KISSES
ON THE FACES AND MEMORIES
OF CHILDREN

EXCHANGE GREETINGS
OF LATHE TURNED WOOD
AND POTATOES
DUG FROM SACRED GROUND
FOR THE SMELL OF COUNTRY HAM

WELCOME
FAMILY
AGAIN

GATHER AFTER SUPPERTIME

REST IN THE WARMTH
OF TRIBAL FIRE
THAT BURNS A SONY ORANGE
GREEN
RED

SHARE THE ORANGE BOWL

GREASE PAINT TIGER PAWS ON CHEEKS
ARE MAGIC FOR THE HUNT

DANCE AGAIN TONIGHT
AROUND NEW FIRE

IN WINTER HUNGRY CAVES
CAVE BEAR NEBRASKA
FALLS BEFORE OUR SPEARS AND STONES

CLEMSON
NUMBER ONE

TOMORROW
TRIBAL FIRE
WILL BURN
ORANGE NYLON JACKET BANNERS
IN WINDOWS GOING HOME

TOMORROW
WILLIE NELSON
WILL SING OLD FIRST BAPTIST SONGS
TO HIS MOTHER
AND WE WILL SEARCH AGAIN
COLUMBIA ARMY /NAVY SURPLUS STORES
IN NASHVILLE TENNESSEE

(FOR JIM AND DONA
MOMMA AND DADDY
PEGGY,LEILA,DELLA
AND BRANDON)
