“A bucket of fish,’’ Mats Hagwall
“I let down my long line; it went falling; I pulled; up came
A bucket of bad sleep in which tongues were sloshing about
Like frogs and dark fish, breaking the surface of silence….’’
— From “The Angler’s Story,’’ by American poet and Yale Prof. John Hollander (1929-2013). He lived in Woodbridge, Conn.
In Woodbridge, the Darling House Museum, built in 1774
