surf's up

during my pioneer
days, while traveling
across the country
in covered wagons,
peacefully i might add,
i couldn't believe
the hostility and
animosity of the indians
as they shot arrows
at us, threw flaming
spears and tommy hawks
as we tried to get
the horses to giddyup
a little faster. we
weren't looking for
trouble, or anything,
we just wanted to get
to california and start
surfing. it was very
upsetting and i've lost
alot of sleep just
thinking about those
days and nights across
the wide plains.
