consider




consider:

It is those we live with and love and should know who elude us.

if it’s this: jack trout won’t to be shamed

by someone who isn’t fly, they know, some-

how, the bait, the line, the way the light

of the silk of it is astride the bright

rise of sky summoned up from the river

bottom that no one will be to blame if

the contest is decided, is tied, is

riding the current, the hip of the fisher,

each on their respective way over stones,

on and on nonstop on and on toward home
