(From the Zephyr Archives) Letter to the Editor: ABOUT PRICKLY PEAR & POVERTY… By Daniel Shellabarger (Suelo)

An excerpt:

This…is about prickly pear and poverty.

On the one hand, Moab, you give me hope; on the other hand you’re pathetic. The good news is hundreds of Moab’s hippest show up at every wilderness hearing, where the room is often packed to standing room only. The lame news is only seven folks straggled in to the Poverty Forum of the Southeastern Utah Association of Governments on April 6. Interestingly, the majority of those attending were minorities. And back in March, a whopping six individuals packed the SEUAOG hearing on housing.

Wilderness is cool right now. Poverty is out.

I mix de-wormer in my dog’s food in hopes that both will slide down her throat together. Maybe if I mix some Poverty Issues with Wilderness Issues, both will slide down your little pink throat, Moab.
