TROUT FISHING

fuche_bu

Glancing at the cover

of a Metro newspaper

and musing over the photo

 

It’s all about baseball

but the title “Trout Fishing”

makes me think of Brautigan

 

St. Richard of Brautigan:

Truly a prophet;

a man ahead of his time.

 

He wrote “Trout Fishing in America.”

decades before

a baseball legend was born.

 

The time for canonization

is upon us.
