The Woodsman
Barely annoying the woods, his cabin like our woodpile home now for chipmunks and birds, isolated by the lily pads - he eschewed all comfort. The view barely cognizant, the prospect of the Massasauga rattler and an occasional broken tin sharp at the edges was like water's drift audible, not yet seen. Toying with the cove, past island jetties & blueberry groves inside little giant's tomb; this man became ingratiated with lake treasure, his clearing a triumphant blast. He affixed his mark - blazoning human habitation on a lonely spot.
