Three poems by Ian Randall Wilson (poetry ’02, fiction ’16)
An excerpt from “A Peaceful Country” and a link to two other poems by Ian Randall Wilson (poetry ’02, fiction ’16), published by Cathexis Northwest Press.
A Peaceful Country
Now that the report is in
the nation in all its nakedness
mouths the platitudes.
Is this the time

From the trees, so much noise
it’s impossible to sleep.
