The Fog Again Has Settled In
Rerun from Nov 2023

Rondeau
The fog again has settled in Along the river like a skin, Beyond the bridge where thought ascends The lengths of cables to their ends, Stretched taut and hooked with bolt and pin. Clark and Lewis and their men Came this way, the west to win, And later found that winter sends The fog again. Sacagawea and her kin Saved them from their own chagrin To find the river where it bends Towards the ocean where it blends With sunrise hidden there within The fog again.
But I might need a pharmocopeia
or look to the heavens to Cassopeia
to find a rhyme for Sacagawea....(!)
This poem is infectious. It gets under your “skin.”
