What remedy


What remedy
For the river
Never sopped
But caught up
In wetting cycles
Uncalled for
Until complaining
Up the ditch

This wiffs
Of Cambrian slip
And me foolish
Fossil hunting
Again
Amid the fiddleheads

The door
To the river
Leads me
To transport
In ghosts

Them
Made contraband merry
Sold their ferry time
To empty
Slave in threats
Trading posts
For getaway logs
