earth note 858

i'm not sure where bigfork northern minnesota
begins or ends 
maybe best to leave it as a mystery
after all it's just a typical dot on the map
penned by some land grabber
stolen from the original
as in the indigenous
people of bigfork
never consulted
but in fact 
should be revered
with full deed of ownership or stewardship
beginning with
water     naming      and rice rights
somewhere near the junction
of a scenic highway
& a thousand lakes
and don't forget that dot

of course you know
the whole country
flows out of bigfork
