Noisy Water is here
Noisy Water is a new anthology of poems by Whatcom County poets. Here is my contribution:
When Baker Blows
Will runners be frozen on their second,or possibly third loop on the backside of Padden?
Will the Lynden faithful be foundsitting, on rock-hard pews, attempting to appear deeply interestedin yet another droning preacher?
Will Lummi kids be caught forever playing chaseon the banks of the Nooksack?
Will cars be perpetually jammed atborder crossings in Blaine, Lynden and Sumas?
Will newborn calves be calcified sucklingtheir mother’s teats on farms around the county?
Will the neo-punk, quasi-hippie, post-grunge,sort of goth street kids be forever huddledon the corner of Railroad and Magnolia,bantering with the spandex-clad city copsastride their requisite bikes?
I wonder.Will it be like Pompeiiwhen Baker finally blows?
