To Camp in These Hills

I love to camp in these hills of mine.
Sometimes hike
There is nothing like
the way they sparkle.

The noon-sun, hot, shimmers
casting it's rays
off of Budlight cans
and broken Sobee bottles

The mid-day heat
can not compete
with the plastic Smiths bags
waving in the breeze
from one or two trees.
And the underwear in
that scrub-oak grove
does not belong to me.
