A City Moves (Hibbing, MN)

You’ve heard of earthquakes  and landslides, but have you seen  the effects of a mining company?  in northern Minnesota 1919 188 buildings, businesses, and houses  were relocated  2 miles and then some  from their previous locations all because of political affiliations  New sewer, water, and electricity  loaded with manpower and steam  touted down new streets  When what is underneath you  is more valuable than above  people make choices for the families that they love https://www.minnpost.com/mnopedia/2012/10/relocation-hibbing-1919-1921/

World Poetry Day

 I hope you are celebrating world poetry day today. If you can write one write a few.  If you can’t write one, read a dozen.

  a line on the palm a line in a poem how many words can one write with a worn nub of a pencil are heartbeats numbered  due to sleepless nights  in games we seek our future  on ouija boards  and rolls of the cleromancy die if you turn a tarot’s noose fate is written in the book  but fortunes folly can lie
