When Milwaukeeans do their business, it eventually ends up at the treatment plant. Something magical happens to all that poo - something involving this constantly belching stack - it becomes Milorganite(tm)! If you're a golfer, chances are good that Milwaukee's diet has helped to make the greens greener at your favorite course!

GGP: 15th Mar 2006 - 23:22 GMT

On cold days, the smoke from smokestacks looks even more potent and portentious than usual. Here is one of my poems about smokestacks.

INDUSTRIAL TRINITY

Three squat smokestacks cinched
a little at the waist
will always evoke Three Mile Island.

Each exudes emissions so dense
they linger in the air --
lorgnettes of smog by which

the landscape, regarded
with cool disdain,
is judged and judged upon.


Hills incremental. Farmlands stuttering. Highways strung out like spittle.

Commerce is a potent aphrodisiac.

--GGP
