Saturday Morning Open Thread

Good morning.

If you need a break from the political frenzy, check out the poem of the week. It's an excerpt from "The Ghost Trio" by Linda Bierds. We're told by the poet blogger who writes the "poem of the week" blog that this is Bierds at her best -- "evocative imagery and smooth yet dramatic transitions."

If you need a dose of political frenzy, it sounds like there was quite a huge Democratic event in North Dakota last night. Yes, North Dakota. Check out nodakfarmboy's diary at DailyKos for the details.
