He went for a trail jog
and it was the only thing
that day, which felt pure,

clean, whole, unadulterated
because it was purging,
cleansing physical exertion —

one step after another
in the face of the expose
of all the disgusting

power plays played out
in creepy sexual behavior
now exposed day after

day after day on TV
and so he stops along
the trail, listens to

the sounds of the forest
and makes calls like he
believes were Native

American calls of har-
mony and unity with the
forest and the animals

therein and the forest
and the animals therein
forgive him for a bad

imitation and wish him
well along the purging,
purifying, spiritual trail.
