osoyoos

lost in my dream
raining and blowing
missed the turn to the office
had to go back
the border guard asked me
which town I was in
I couldn’t remember
I tried to recall it
he said “say what you’re thinking”
I was thinking “Osoyoos”
but I knew that was wrong

Osoyoos, location of the only hot desert in Canada and site of border crossing from Oroville/Tonasket
