Kasaan, Alaska. Why does it exist?
I recall the words…
Near Ernest Sound, Eastern Passage and
Zimovia Strait
When an eagle comes, south wind on its way
Whooshed through the yellow cypress
See Caulder Mountain for the first time
Shotguns and cricks
In the remote wilderness
That’s how this place is…
F***ed up, doped up
Moonshine, fifteen dollars a quart jar
Or if you prefer, a slow release opioid…
- I don’t like downers, I never have
Garbage cans, small dogs, and kids
All blowing around
Out here
Hillbilly youth, beauteous boy
Harassed and was forced to strip naked
But couldn’t escape and was raped…
Then left home
A trip into the unknown
Lines, wires, cables and chokers
Riggin rats and riggin slingers
How does a truck driver dress
In this country?
Caulk boots
A logging accident…what lies ahead
For this broken down cripple
