Poetry by Jim Warner
Poetry by Jim Warner
crematorium and sugar
or maybe you are covered in gasoline; like that monk in that movie, the one about
the movie looking for an ending and coming up with a beginning–a beginning
to, or of, or about the end. The first to protest war by being consumed in flame. Immolate.
Push this straw through a plastic lid. It’s the way a paper bag sags
around a cheeseburger or how your button- up bulges at…

If you stand still long enough, you will see everything end. You have been conditioned by several summers of comic book blockbusters to wait past the credits. You understand the red herring of the mid-credit reveal. The tag and turn of a stadium-seated hook–teasing out wait for the sequel, the next movie, the next season. You wait past one teaser, waiting for another. Lights rise like smoke to tell you to wait for nothing else. The ushers are sweeping out the debris.

Interview | Jim Warner on the Wild Oats & Notes Festival
The 9th edition of the Wild Oats & Notes Festival is set to take over the Schultz family century old farmstead just outside of Tofield, Alberta, on June 27 & 28. During the year the farm is home to peas and canola but every other summer one of the sweetest little folk festivals in the province takes place there.
We caught up with Jim Warner who runs the festival with friend & founder (& farm owner!) Brian Schultz. Jim reflects on festivals past, explains where the catch phrase "there's no culture like agriculture" comes from, and gives some pro tips for enjoying the weekend.
