--- K R I S T E N T R A C Y Yesterday, looking for snails, five students died when their canoes overturned. The soft-bodied snails went untouched--never breaking their hold on the rocks. How much can a reservoir hold in the dark? Ask the moon who was not out washing their bodies with light. One student survived and he might grow up to be a scientist with tremendous drive--feel a need to get a move on and figure out his atoms, how they fly, how they stay peaceably intact. Some of the drowned might have dropped out anyway, they all weren't going to be scientists and perhaps one of them was ready to die--already entertaining it--so when his canoe capsized it was simply a matter of not coming up. The paper said with all of their gear they sank like rocks. Except for the survivor who had been asleep on his pack. The parents are blaming themselves, but they still want answers that will get to the core of what happened. Yesterday a mother broke a stone on a stone to see its center and found an ordinary middle. |
