The Recession Strikes North Seattle
by Chris Middleman
Rumor has it that the
Friday night farmer's market
suffers from record-low attendance,
due in part to a stifling "no dogs" policy

We're hoping to mobilize soon,
in support of our local string bands,
artisanal cheese vendors, and vegan-friendly
scented candle stands, as we are now
fully aware of just what we stand to lose
