Soos: The Blue Fish
from Mark Reads to You Hosted by Mark Coen
Bonus episode! So it turns out in my accounting of states still in play in the US Presidential election, I left out Alaska, which had counted all of its Election Day votes but was waiting until after the deadline to count absentee and mail-in ballots - almost 40 percent of the expected total! Which is how you now get: The Blue Fish by Frank Soos, the Writer Laureate of Alaska. That's correct, Writer Laureate. The Alaska State Council of the Arts changed the name in 1996 to honor all forms of writing. Today's poem is part of the Poems in Place project, which looks to put poems in Alaska's state parks to enhance the natural surroundings. It's a pretty cool idea.
