Circling the Square

Audio Recordings, Travel / April 24, 2021 / by neil_2015_wordpress@neilmeili.com

The old towns in South Texas
have a town square that all life circles around

One sees it also in Mexico and Spain
but that was where I saw them first
and an instant homeness rose

In the small towns of Saskatchewan
where I was born and raised
there was only a main street
and that was only always a road out of town
