The Ohio (from the book, Breckenridge County Suite)

by Joe Bolton

Seven miles south of anywhere

You'd rather be, it is autumn.

What sweetened shrivels,

What shriveled falls,

And what fell is leaf-rot,

A sick rich scent in the air.

You are paling, you are bored,

You are zipping up your jacket

And walking into a dynamo

Of twilight and raw wind,

Tossing your hair as a brief bruise

Of pink scores the horizon.

Seven miles north, below the lights

From bars and dance halls

Of small towns, the Ohio swells

With a cargo of barges,

And catfish twist through the bones

Of what never bothered to rise.

Does this Gary Snyder poem hint at something deep or is it just an attempt to show off one's wit?

"Artemis, Artemis,

So I saw you naked--

well GO and get your g**d***'d

virginity back

me, me,

I've got to feed my hounds."

I discussed this with a Buddhist in the Army but would like to hear other views from multiple religious or secular views.
