Bemidji
Bunyan and blue Babe
water crossing through water
pine scent combs Paul’s beard
U.S. curling capital
stalks of sunflowers
fanboy sun towards heaven
logger’s cold sets in
hard Winter in the North Woods*
mosquito frostbites
Babe and the lumberjack thrash
thunder and earthquakes —
quench me with life and legend
9/25/2020
*A legend is told of the giant Paul Bunyan and Babe, his blue ox.
