 I forced 

Two paths
Two rivers 
Bleeding yellow
Neither were least traveled
Not in New Hampshire 
A pair of leather shoes
in spring mud
after winter 
White with rust
plied between trees
Maytag 
GE 
Reynolds-Weyerhauser
I wandered and smelled pine 
and frosty stars
On nothing sat simple ladies
And dimpled terrain
No Arapasoke Iroquois Cree
Algonquin fever
My hands cold
My brain dead
