oil spill technology


on my way to coffee walkin on a small path behind the bank of america
leading me to cross hwy. 104 in kingston. the water from this mornings
rain and snow mix used the same trail on its way down
to apple tree cove, the anxious little stream shining in the early gray light
with a cool thin petroleum sheen. you don't give two spits
about an oil spill on the puget sound. you do it every day with a lot of
other things on your mind. so just now you want to prepare for a worst case
scenario? we are the worst case scenario.
