It’s funny that
he bore witness
to news
written on stone
images of deer
tracks of bear
and buffalo
now
breaking news
on screens
that glow
never mind
newspapers
stacked
in dark corners
never to see
the light of day
trees
long ago
felled
by a whipsaw
now hanging
on that restaurant
wall
the old man looked
and sipped his coffee
and knew
the writing was
now
on
the
wall.
