NIGHT AT THE SALMON
At night the salmon move out from the river and into town
They avoid places with names
like Foster's Freeze,A&W ,Smiley's,
but swim close to the tract
homes on Wright Avenue where sometimes
in the early morning hours
you can hear them tryng doorknobs or
bumping against Cable TV lines.
We wait up for them.
We leave our back windows open
and call out when we hear a splash.
Mornings are a disappointment.
