July

by Susan Hartley Swett


When the scarlet cardinal tells

Her dream to the dragonfly,

And the lazy breeze makes a nest in the trees,

And murmurs a lullaby,

It's July.


When the tangled cobweb pulls

The cornflower's cap awry,

And the lilies tall lean over the wall

To bow to the butterfly,

It's July.


When the heat like a mist veil floats,

And poppies flame in the rye,

And the silver note in the streamlet's throat

Has softened almost to a sigh,

It's July.


When the hours are so still that time

Forgets them, and lets them lie

Underneath petals pink till the night stars wink

At the sunset in the sky,

It's July.

Yes, I'm well aware of that fact, sir. But just because we banned it domestically, under pressure from the bird watching
contingent and the hopheads down at the EPA, it doesn't necessarily follow that the rest of the world - especially the
developing world - is about to jump on the bandwagon. And that's the key word here, Senator: developing. You've got to realize this is Borneo we're talking about here, not Port Townsend. These people don't know from square one about
sanitation, disease control, pest eradication - or even personal hygiene, if you want to come right down to it. It rains a hundred and twenty inches a year, minimum. They dig up roots in the jungle. They've still got headhunters along the Rajang River, for god's sake. And please don't forget they asked us to come in there, practically begged us - and not only the World Health Organization,
but the Sultan of Brunei and the government in Sarawak too. We did what we could to accommodate them and reach our objective in the shortest period of time and by the most direct and effective means. We went to the air. Obviously. And no one could have foreseen the consequences, no one, not even if we'd gone out and generated a hundred environmental-impact statements - it was just one of those things, a freak occurrence, and there's no defense against that. Not that I know of, anyway....
Caterpillars? Yes, Senator, that's correct. That was the first sign: caterpillars.
