Poetry by Robert Louis Henry |

Eason & Louis #3

Stopping in the road to
save a poor, well defended
rock and burning that copy
of Animal Farm

Playing hide and seek
with their drug dealer
and smoking somas

Louis read somewhere
that you feel creative
when you're on drugs,
but other people just
think you're on drugs

Eason reassured Louis,
Hands gesturing a needle,
Pointing at the Earth below.

Why would anybody want to save a rock?
