TheRockies

Far off I see
the shoulders of animals 
of war on campaign
draped in black and 
green their leader standing 
taller than the rest 
wears white and gold 
now in formation head
to tail they stand
awaiting command but none 
comes none has for 
millions of years ever 
since they first arrived 
erupting from the bowels 
of the earth these
behemoths crawled and scratched 
tore and laid waste 
to whatever was before 
now long gone beneath 
the patient hooves of 
these Rockies Mountains giants
