The novel would have ended with surveyors
Sighting and measuring upstream from the falls.
A dam projected. The pueblo elders
Have given in, not that they had much choice.
Next year there’ll be no waterfall, no stream
Running through Matt and Lucy’s land. They’re lucky,
A Department man explains. Communities
Three or four miles West will be submerged.
On the bright side, it means a power station,
Light all through the valley. “Light,” he repeats,
Since the old husband shakes his head. And she:
“Oh…light!”—falsely effusive, not to belittle
Any redress so royal, so…Words fail her.
What did I once think those two would feel?
