Living and breathing in the Second City
Harold Henderson links an interesting question from HNN … why do we as a nation remember Plymouth Rock more than Jamestown. I can’t even begin to talk intelligently about this … but I thought Jamestown flirted with rationing and “communism” (for lack of better terminology) and almost failed as a result? That would seem to me an import consideration.
The fog comes
on little cat feet.
It sits looking
over harbor and city
on silent haunches
and then moves on.
