An excerpt The Swamp Beavers have dammed upDragon Creek again.Hay fields along Johnston LedgeAre a swamp. Blades of grassPierce the ice-flat surface. But ducks land: Morning pink and invertedPurple hills shatterAs ripples paint a new scene. I imagine webby feetKicking beneath splashesOf electrum. I want to seeMosquito-larva and tadpoles.I fancy trout that escapedThe fat creek, that slideThrough new spaceIn old time. I hope nobodyDynamites the dam, But someone will.Someone must.And yet, I hope nobodyBlows up that dam.
