Most of the powerlines are actually telecommunications cables but oh well.

Can you spot the AutoZone store! And can you spot the billboard shadow.

SNAKING THRU the city of Winston-Salem were the sentient waters of Salem Creek, hellbent on finding their way to the Yadkin River.

"Yadkin Yadkin Yadkin" they chatter inwardly nonstop. The waters are sentient, sinuous, *and* sinewy, all three.

Lo, a broken clay pipe across the water.

Write me a song about an Allegheny Mountains powerline right-of-way.

Here one is, to inspire you. Any musical genre is fine but I prefer high-NRG dance songs with wry lyrics.
