Good will toward men."

Dream On, SFB

GOD HELP THE SALMON!

Fall steelhead, but that's okay, the steelhead is now a salmon, biologically speaking

365

We tried
(God knows how we tried)
to stomp out the salmon
yet they keep coming back.

WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS THINKING?

Yeah, Team, Go, Team

364

My team beat your team.

So, my school is better than your school

Therefore, I am better than you.

More from the Gary Snyder poem about Cormorants:

"Toes writing in water
rocks drawn with dribbles
scat incense in the wind
cormorants open their thin black wings
talk about art, lecture the
clouds of tiny fish"
