  5. “Elk river falls” • is where the Elk River fallsfrom a rocky and considerable height,turning pale with trepidation at the lip(it seemed from where I stood below)before it is unbuckled from itselfand plummets, shredded, through the airinto the shadows of a frigid pool,so calm around the edges, a placefor water to recover from the shockof falling apart and coming back togetherbefore it picks up its song again,goes sliding around the massive rocksand past some islands overgrown with weedsthen flattens out and slips around a bendand continues on its winding course,according to this camper's guide,then joins the Clearwater at its northern fork,which must in time find the seawhere this and every other streammistakes the monster for itself,sings its name one final timethen feels the sudden sting of salt.
