Not even when the rain falls in sheets
and the bugs are biting in the woods
True, it can be a bitch on a day in July
hiking with the old labrador
along the trail that meanders
down to the north branch
Some days the old labrador
tells me how her legs ache
and how she longs
to bathe in the cool water
of the north branch
like a gaelic princess
So we walk through woods
like man and dog with string-tied
packages in our brains
Wandering in a worm-shaped
country north by northwest
far from Limbo
