Confluent Stream Poem by D.N. Rebb
Confluent Stream
Rating: ★5.0
In Erie County's northern edge lingers
Swift water
Of the mighty Niagara River
With first great navigable waterway
Erie Canal
Next loud Boom Town once, yet no more today
If you're from the town of Tonawanda
Just boring
As ethnic diversity still ponders
Most true conservatives love to live here
Rural antis
Near river, now only few natives hear

As I read this, I can hear a folk rock melody in the distance. Brilliant, D.N!
