Pagami Poetry




This poem was written on September 12, right after the Pagami Creek fire’s big movement:

Monster in the woods

Zeus created it and man contained it cornered and under guard

It escaped and ran wild its burning fingers groping

The “army” came and once again surrounded

But the lines are thin and it runs with the wind

The creature called Pagami
