Fire Lookout Poetry
@firelookoutpoetry.bsky.social
This is a page dedicated to poetry from past and present Fire Lookouts and enthusiasts. Please send submissions via DM. You can either post using your name and lookout name, only your lookout name, or post anonymously. Epic photos are also accepted.
I'd like to open this page with a poem that started everything for me and so many other fire lookouts. Gary Snyder introduced me to poetry, Zen, travel, and fire lookout work. On a good day, being a fire lookout still feels this way.
