“Poems
I text my love at Old Mill Station

By Andrea Josic


The Humber River watershed is the

largest in our intentional city, formed

through an erosion of millenial's dusk

Did you know, even salmon home

journey backwards to a safer place

when the night begins to carve out the day

Sometimes, they call a river stream an arm,

meaning, I would host this earth's hand to

trail these thousand patterns for you

So let me briefly meet you where

birds revoice in the year's thaw as I

thunder in from an end much quieter

across seconds of dune and sky and bridge

And I'll let you know

I will be home again soon
