Geocache Description:


This cache is a tribute to Gord Downie and the Tragically Hip, one of the greatest bands in Canadian history.

Poets was released in June 1998 as the lead single from The Tragically Hip’s sixth studio album, Phantom Power. The song reached number-one on Canada's Alternative chart, and stayed number-one for 12 weeks straight, longer than any song in the history of that chart.


Spring starts when a heartbeat's pounding
When the birds can be heard above the reckoning carts doing some final accounting
Lava flowing in Superfarmer's direction
He's been getting reprieve from the heat in the frozen food section

Don't tell me what the poets are doing
Don't tell me that they're talking tough
Don't tell me that they're anti-social
Somehow not anti-social enough, all right

And porn speaks to it's splintered legions
To the pink amid the withered cornstalks in them winter regions
While aiming at the archetypal father
He said with such broad and tentative swipes why do you even bother?

Don't tell me what the poets are doing
Those Himalayas of the mind
Don't tell me what the poet's been doing
In the long grasses over time
