Bad Little Falls on the Machias River in Machias

“As if the banks were lined by spiders

tossing long, shimmering filaments

the river crawls along like prey.”

….Some have caught a fish. Four crescent tails

are nailed to my woodshed door.

For summers to come

they will draw the iridescent flies.’’

— From “Bluefish run, Machias, Maine,’’ by Paul Nelson
