NUGGET
FROM THE TRAP LINE
(By Burns Wood Bard, of the
Yentna)
You asked me last fall
; To write some time.
Having waited so long
I'll put it in rhyme.
My rhyme is disjointed,
On purpose, and so
If a verse be offensive
Remove it you know.
It will soon be March,
We'll be feeling mightly blue.
Closed season, all 'round,
Whats a trapper gonna do?
Beans are mighty high.
We can’t take meat.
I’ll leave it up to you,
What’s a trapper gonna eat?
All through the month of March
The land is under snow.
The creeks are frozen over,
And frozen far below.
Yet we can’t take a fur,
Nor hunt a thing to eat.
We’ll soon be on the bread-line,
That’s forming down the street.
There are business men in Anchor
age
Worried sick, you bet your life.
How will a trapper pay his bills
When not allowed to use his knife?
There is snow and ice, and sleet.
Spring is far away.
We’ve lost a whole long month,
So how we gonna pay?
It's true the moose are pluggin,
Plugging by the cabin door.
Should a trapper plug a moose,
Into jail for ever more.
The commission—saving moose.
Some hunter wants a head?
Hunters killing every autumn
Till the Creeks are running red.
The hunter takes the head.
The meat is left to rot.
i The head he takes away,
But the meat ne’r sees a pot.
Ten thousand juicy steaks
That will never see a pan.
Now call it conservation,
Or call it what you can.
When a trapper kills a moose
The whole thing goes in stew.
When a hunter kills a moose
We all know what they do
Now call it conservation,
Or call it what you will.
Hamburger gone to waste——
Alaska pays the bill.
I'm stumbling down the trail
Long about night;
Meet a brownie, ten feet tall
Teeth a gleaming white.
I’d like to have a steak,
Or his skin for a bed.
But I'm not allowed to kill him
The Game Commission said.
Some Big Game Hunter wants him—
Now the bear begins to growl,
I’m not allowed to kill him
So I guess I’d better prowl.
11 haven’t time to run,
I climb the nearest tree.
I wish the Game Commission
Were a roosting, long o’ me.
The bear gnawed down my tree,
It landed with a crash.
I hit the ground a running;
A going like a flash
For I'm told I mustn’t kill him.
Some hunter wants his skin.
And if I break the law,
They will send me to the pen.
We do no mind the deepes* snow.
Nor dread the fiercest storm,
And its bureaucratic form.
But curse all autocratic law
Alas! That trappers run in singles
Each fancying himself a king.
We'll never stick together.
Alone we d rather hang.
P. S.— Long live the free press.
Yentna, February 28. 1935.
