Wooded Land on the Connecticut River
Thick woods grip the Connecticut River's serpentine banks, ancient hardwoods arching overhead like silent guardians of Abenaki burial grounds. Mist curls from the current, carrying the chill weight of sacred earth where roots delve into contested history. Political ambition collides with ancestral fury here, shadows lengthening over soil that rejects a presidential library's footprint, tension thrumming through every leaf and stone.
