 A break in the kink

  The armor is gone
Tanks and jeeps like pine knots 
  Stewed tomatoes and wieners
    A raccoon hat and a sargeants stripes 
   A broken chipped arrowhead
   In the birches 
Near Big Sandy Opening
 You said let's watch TV
  So we woke the bear from his hibernation 
 You shot him from your hiding spot in the tree
"I ain't going back!"
No one asked.
