by Alan Catlin
After the blowout, fireball's
concussive force is impossible
to contain. Initial corporate
efforts are to silence the survivors
even as the dead have not been
accounted for. No one is willing
to accept blame for what
cannot be denied; The Gulf is ruined:
beaches, wildlife, wetlands, all these
manmade calamities reducing resources
to wasteland, heedless of what comes
after; tar covered roads to nowhere.
Alan Catlin has published numerous chapbooks and full length books of poetry and prose. Pygmy Forest Press is publishing the collected "Deep Water Horizon" poems.
