After the Fields

 








After The Fields

Cold...

Quiet...

Bright yellow fungus on balsam logs
Wolf scat with feathers
Deer droppings fresh
Brown water from beaver dam overlying pond ice
Forest leaves scattered flat everywhere waiting for winter's blanket
No snow to cover them all

Dark now...

Quieter...

Wind whispers secrets around the cabin logs...

Full On War

Full On War 2001 Years Later jp melville It is just about here that you would think that I would get back to Imishli.   And I do.   But not for long.   There is a call from Buck, the guy they call regional director.   Works out of New York.   So guess where I end up.   Yup.   New York.   But just long enough to get fired from my post.   I arrived in the city in the evening.   Into the office at eight in the morning.   Fired by eight thirty.   Fired by a guy who is not paid for his job.   Just sort of always been around.   Which got my mind going on conspiracy theory.   Actually, I had been doing the surfing on the internet from Baku.   International Rescue Committee run by Cherne and pals, friends with Haliburton.   The gas pipeline through Afghanistan, which is about the only reason we have Canadian troops in the land of the Khyber Pass.   Why on earth would Canadian babies be ...
