With fly-paper brains
Descend on these northern towns
Eating up the beauty of the lakes
And of the green until it’s gone
And only the blue remains
Every summer for new
Generations to discover
Alone out ice-fishing
The dark blue that remains
Of these northern lakes
At the bottom of a hole
Serious as a soul-attack
You know the lake wants out
But spring is always tardy
