I continue to hold out hope that some miracle will happen for our small town--I really do. Was our Main Street ever what it seemed? In reality‚ it has always been much more complex than it appears. As I hold the pages of the names of businesses that used to flourish on Carleton Place I wonder what happened to once was

    William Carlos Williams is known for writing ‘A Red Wheelbarrow’ in 1923‚ an iconic poem during the modernist movement. He is also known for writing small‚ yet simple and powerful pieces of literature such as the poem ‘This Is Just To Say’ written in 1934.

    “London” I wander thro’ each charter’d street‚ Near where the charter’d Thames does flow. And mark in every face I meet Marks of weakness‚ marks of woe. In every cry of every Man‚ In every Infants cry of fear‚ In every voice: in every ban‚ The mind-forg’d manacles I hear How the Chimney-sweepers cry Every black’ning Church appalls‚ And the hapless Soldiers sigh Runs in blood down Palace walls But most thro’ midnight streets I hear How the youthful Harlots curse

On my way to school and work there are dozens of businesses and signs that are just blurs in the corner of my eye. One business that I have always noticed was the furniture store‚ H3 Home + Decor‚ off of Harkrider Street. Every time I drive by I see the larger than life billboard on the side of the building. The billboard is a bright green living room set that attracts the eye of nearly
