The fish are calling



Rain, wool pants and the last cigar
catching raindrops on my sox and a buzz in my ear.
Headed for the mountains and lakes
first to cut down some mighty trees
and roll some weeds.

Jack found him in the creek. Bishop swore he had seen a flock of Peacocks walk by. Jack said they were only Blue Grouse. Bishop said, you should have knocked them off, they have plenty of meat on the bone. Jack started the sermon off loud. The megaphone turned up. Bishop was down, wrestling with the creek bottom, the lash of the spruce, rumbling with the thunder, the creeks caught in his years, walking trails he had better forget. Bishop was coming back. Jack was on a roll. It was unlikely they would ever get their shit together, and head down the road in the same direction.
