Crow, October

ear trumpet 7.jpg

October, before it had

a name. Still, though, a month of

low iron skies and protracted

sulks and cold rain and bursts

of crisp radiance that never

lost their ability to

dazzle and surprise.


A flash of revelation

even as the hammer fell:

We will miss this world

when it's gone, or

when we are.

Same difference.

Morning Migration

Things are getting back to normal now. The collapse of the bridge was two months ago, and except for the families of the dead and injured, we Minnesotans have moved on. The Legislature had its special session and funds were approved for southeastern Minnesota flood relief, but the gas tax is where it was before the bridge fell, and the roads continue to deteriorate.
