Me sit in a hut
similar as found in Annoatok
viewing ruthless rocky and toneless
Somewhere above the gray mist
there is a clear bright sun
in the blue of space
Saluting Peary, Henson and four Inuit men
making brave conquest of the North Pole
full century ago
Me sit in a hut
similar as found in Annoatok
praying verses for Cook and his three boxes
Cheerio
