The Blackfly Song - Wade Hemsworth

An Electric Armchair cover

(Recorded on electric guitar in the morning, and fireworks from Chinguacousy Park in the evening.)

(... A canadian folk song about Ontario written by a guy from Ontario covered by me, also from Ontario, with a video of a celebration I recorded in Ontario on Canada Day... it doesn't get any more Canadian than this, eh!)

LYRICS:

'Twas early in the spring when I decided to go

For to work up in the woods in North Ontar-i-o

And the unemployment office said they'd send me through

To the Little Abitibi with the survey crew

And the black flies, the little black flies

Always the black fly no matter where you go

I'll die with the black fly a-pickin' my bones

In North Ontar-i-o-i-o, in North Ontar-i-o

And the man Black Tobey was the captain of the crew

And he said, I'm gonna tell you boys, what we're gonna do

They want to build a power dam; we must find a way

For to make the Little Ab flow around the other way

With the black flies, the little black flies

Always the black fly no matter where you go

I'll die with the black fly a-pickin' my bones

In North Ontar-i-o-i-o, in North Ontar-i-o

So we survey to the east, survey to the west

Couldn't make our minds up how to do it best

Little Ab, Little Ab, what shall I do

I'm all but goin' crazy with the survey crew

And the black flies, the little black flies

Always the black fly no matter where you go

I'll die with the black fly a-pickin' my bones

In North Ontar-i-o-i-o, in North Ontar-i-o

It was blackfly, blackfly, everywhere

A-crawlin' in your whiskers, crawlin' in your hair

Swimmin' in the soup, swimmin' in the tea

And the devil take the blackfly, let me be

Black flies, the little black flies

Always the black fly no matter where you go

I'll die with the black fly a-pickin' my bones

In North Ontar-i-o-i-o, in North Ontar-i-o

Black Tobey fell to swearin'; the work went slow

The state of our morale was a-gettin' pretty low

The flies swarmed heavy; hard to catch your breath

As you staggered up and down the trail a-talkin' to yourself

With the black flies, the little black flies

Always the black fly no matter where you go

I'll die with the black fly a-pickin' my bones

In North Ontar-i-o-i-o, in North Ontar-i-o

Well now, the bull cook's name was Blind River Joe

If it hadn't been for him we'd 've never pulled through

'Cause he bound up our bruises and he kidded us for fun

And he lathered us with bacon grease and balsam gum

And the black flies, the little black flies

Always the black fly no matter where you go

I'll die with the black fly a-pickin' my bones

In North Ontar-i-o-i-o, in North Ontar-i-o

And at last the job was over; Black Tobey said we're through

With the Little Abitibi and the survey crew

'Twas a wonderful experience and this I know

I'll never go again to North Ontar-i-o

With the black flies, the little black flies

Always the black fly no matter where you go

I'll die with the black fly a-pickin' my bones

In North Ontar-i-o-i-o, in North Ontar-i-o

And the black flies, the little black flies

Always the black fly no matter where you go

I'll die with the black fly a-pickin' my bones

In North Ontar-i-o-i-o, in North Ontar-i-o

Winnie, by Jack Hostrawser

fiction by Jack Hostrawser | second place fiction winner of the 2017 Blodwyn Memorial Prize, sponsored by Book*Hug

“‘Winnie’ is an exemplary story in all aspects: from characters to pacing to the prose itself—so clear and crisp it is almost transparent. The story drew us in immediately and never let us go. The moment you finish, you want to jump right back up to the start and begin again, and it never fails to hold up under more and more readings.”

It’ll go like this all night, when the snow’s fine like this. I’ve turned the light off in the guest room and slid a chair up to the window to sit and watch until my mom’s ready. Some high-backed thing that’s not very comfortable unless you fold yourself up in it. Everything in Yusuf’s house is like that. People from the forties have weird tastes.

I’ve got a long view from here down to the fields he rents out and all the dry corn still in them, whispering in the snow. If I had the time, maybe I’d go out later all bundled up and go walking in the storm and try to appreciate it. There’s never going to be any snow at Dad’s place.

Mom knocks once then enters, smelling like the fireplace downstairs. “You don’t want the lights on?” she asks, flicking them on. I pick up my backpack of things and she steps out of the way. Yusuf and her are taking his kids on a whirlwind tour of Egypt for three weeks over Christmas break. They’ll spend what some people earn in a year. Mom really wants me to come.

Instead, she says “Your father will really appreciate the company company this time of year.”

The drive in from the hills to the city is slow and warm inside my mother’s new car. The car is noiseless, and when the traffic parts it plummets downhill like a boulder breaking loose. Cities look really nice in snowstorms, before the ploughs clear the roads. I watch the surface streets passing below us like Christmas village scenes of cars stuck on hills and people strolling with their tongues out. As we pull up to the terminal men in suits waiting on the sidewalk look up at this bright red machine crunching through the white streetlight. Mom pays my fare for the shuttle, both ways.

When I was born my parents picked Winnie, after my grandfather (Dad’s side). I never got a good answer as to why they chose that name for their daughter. Winston Liam was a forest-firefighter in Washington and B.C. He worked in the oil sands when the mountains weren’t burning. This was back in the twenties. I was able to find out a lot about him because he posted so much online. The pictures he took on his sorties were actually really good—lots of haze between the trees and predatory, scurrying flames. Family stuff too, but in those he always seemed uncertain. His picture face was to furrow his brow and push up his frown and wait. My dad doesn’t talk about him much.

This is what I figure happened: I think he got blindsided bad a few times, coming home from a season out there in the bush and finding the world changed. He stumbled out of the backcountry smoking or covered in oil and people were asking his opinion about neural interfaces or the businessmen on Mars. And all the while the rains kept failing and his wives kept leaving. I won’t throw stones.

I spot Dad as I squeeze out of the elevator. The terminal always smells like sweat and cleaning solvents. He stands up from the bench and smiles awkwardly at me like we’re sharing a joke. I reach out to hug him with the in-flight magazine still in my hand and I feel his bony ribs under the thin sweater.

“Hello, daughter. How’s the weather?”

“Snowing, father. Don’t you ever look down?”

“Making small talk, Win.”

“Sorry.” I smile for him. “How was your big job on the outside?”

“Long.”

“Yeah but… holy shit. EVA.”

He shrugs, pulls a little box from his pocket. “It’s a little early but… I got you something.”

The wrapping paper is an old invoice. Inside is an acrylic cube the size of a golf ball with a rust-coloured pebble set in the centre.

“Cala at work said some really nice things about, uh, what it means—the significance of the rock, that is.” He takes a deep breath and fake-laughs. “I forgot every goddamned word.”

I twist the glass to pick out the details. It looks like a kidney and is definitely igneous, dull in colour and rough. “Holy shit, Dad. Is this real?”

He’s already walking. “Yep,” he says, “There’s a certificate in the box.” I follow with my eyes on the rock, trying not to trip. Fucking Mars.

“How’s your mother?”

“I dunno. Same. She got her new car.”

He nods and starts leading the way to his apartment. The strip near any of the spokes is all hotels and restaurants. We walk through a movie-set version of the Mediterranean with faux cobblestones and hidden fans pumping in cooking smells. A table of people in nice clothes laughs loudly about something as we pass by the patio, and I catch eye contact with a silver-haired woman in jewelry. Her eyes smile at me, while she finishes telling her story to the table. Through the skylights, the moon spins gently out of view. Once, while my parents were fighting, my mother brought me up here, to the Italian place by B-Spoke, pretending to have money in a terrifying, quiet fever.

At the door to his apartment he lifts his card toward the sensor but stops. “I’m having the, uh…” He stares at his room number where it’s glued to the door, picking at the edge of the card. “I updated the will. But it’s going to take a while, so there’s a document I’ve had them make up. It sort of supersedes what’s—”

“You expecting to die?”

“No. I mean, I don’t think I’m going to die.” He always shrugs when talking about complicated life things. Right now he shrugs and says “You never know.” After a few seconds he smiles a little and says the next thing almost under his breath. “Now, if something happens to me, it won’t all go to your mother.”

I’ve spent evenings with him, watching shitty action movies and trying to keep him occupied enough. Spite’s a new emotion from him. He taps the card and the door unlocks. He puts his jacket on the counter and orders a pizza.

This latest place is about nine hundred square feet, white paint on drywall with recessed lights. Probably not renovated since they built the station. It was a two-bedroom, but one turned into his office. I fold out the couch when I visit, which is fine by me—I slept on a coffee table once at a party, and Dad’s saving money. He really loves making the joke about not quite being able to afford the balcony option yet, and after the first visit I started having this recurring dream of there being a balcony, and a sliding glass door instead of tall windows. I would lean on the railing and watch the sun set over and over behind the curve of the planet. The vacuum smelled like a winter night. In reality, it stinks like ozone. When the cargo ships come in, the docks reek of it.

The dishwasher, I notice, is in pieces on the kitchen floor, parts labeled and a how-to guide printed out. He steps through it and goes into his office to finish work. I open the shutters on the windows and find myself staring down onto wrinkled white tundra, falling slowly away under scattered cirrus clouds. I stare at the floor until the vertigo fades. (The little wooden tiles are the exact shape of Jenga blocks.)

When Dad’s finished I reheat up some slices for him and we watch a movie in the dark, about a man stuck on a hijacked shuttle. The bad guy is trying to distract the authorities while he steals a secret briefcase of money in the cargo hold. People squint and grimace before shooting each other and Dad falls asleep halfway. As the credits roll he inhales and lifts himself out of the armchair, slow as a scuba diver, and walks in stiff steps across the room to the short hallway. The bathroom fan squeaks as it spins up. I’m too jet-lagged to sleep, so I lie awake and browse through articles, looking up to watch the sunset. I fall asleep somewhere in the middle of a feature about famous nuclear weapons accidents.

The first time I went into the hills to eat dinner with my mother at Yusuf’s house she told me the story of her new life: the car, the landscaping, the painting classes at the adult education centre. She served dinner to his daughters and me, and then to Yusuf, telling me there was going to be an allowance.

“You understand, I just never want you to ever feel trapped anywhere. You’re such an amazing young woman and I want you to be free to do the things that matter to you.”

“I guess. I could get a new place of my own.”

“Yes, exactly. Even more than that, though. I want you to think big. It’s so important to travel when you’re young and see the world and not get stuck thinking you have to be one thing or that you have to do a job you hate.”

Yusuf picked up the gravy and poured it onto his duck, looking at me. “Do you have anyplace you’d like to see?”

“I don’t know.”

The three daughters laughed incredulously. “Anywhere in the world?” one asked.

I sipped my wine. “Maybe the Rockies?”

“Oh my God,” my mother said, “yes, you have to see the Rockies. I’m saying you can do that now. Or, when the papers are all signed, but you know what I mean. I want you to really live, Winnie.”

I must have said something nice. I know I picked up a forkful of meat and chewed it, thinking about my own kind of greed. This time last year my mother was drunk in front of the TV while Dad worked in lieu of coming home. But I said nothing and took the money she gave me at the spaceport afterward. The first transfer arrived a week later.

When my dad’s biological mom died last summer he had me sit the house until it sold, and while there I went through her computer. The videos went way back. My favourite is from some camping trip Winston took with three friends after high school, with no idea what they were doing and blackflies in their hair. They’re in canoes, drinking hard and fishing illegally. It looks like they probably don’t expect to hook the huge pike that they do. Winston’s holding the rod and he panics, making his friend panic and that plus the fish’s thrashing almost tips the boat. The guy filming can barely hold up his phone, he’s laughing so hard. The two fishermen somehow get the fish out of the water and then Winston starts beating it with his paddle as hard as he can to make it stop thundering around in the boat. Finally it dies, or passes out, and the two guys just stare at each other for a moment, panting, then they both begin howling with laughter until they can’t breathe. I watched that one over and over. I can’t… I don’t know why.

Dad’s already gone when I wake up on the couch, but he’s left a note saying we’re going out for dinner tonight. I step over all the pieces of dishwasher and make an omelette, which I eat while I try to see how the pieces fit together. He has the parts all labeled in his squared-off handwriting and the littlest bits are taped up in plastic baggies. The trick to repairing stuff is just to fiddle with the pieces until you start finding connections. Yusuf said that. He keeps a yacht in Alexandria, and the first time he took Mom and me down to see it we set out for Cyprus, then broke down. So instead we hung out in the middle of the Mediterranean and stargazed while he crawled below deck, basically learning how to do marine diesel engine repair on the spot. He’s clever like that. At some point in the night he woke me with a bribe of tea to come help him dismantle a water pump so he could fish the broken impeller blades from it. When we had the thing disassembled on the floor he got up and stretched and raised his eyebrows mid-yawn when he noticed the time.

“I started out as a mechanic. Did I tell you that?”

“Mom mentioned it.”

“If you wanted to eat where I grew up you figured something out, and you charged for it.”

“Wow.”

“Can’t be afraid to break things. You just,” he made a chopping motion at the engine with his hand, “try things. Nothing ever fixes itself.” He thought about that for a moment. “Entropy.”

When the pump had a new impeller and the engine was running again, my mother woke up and dragged him off to bed. I climbed up onto the foredeck and stared up at the sky, watching for satellites.

In all likelihood, the anglers who are heading to classic trout ponds in places like the Adirondacks will have a variety of these football-shaped lures in their tackle boxes and will be ready to drag them through these waters where ice-out has just occurred. In this writers opinion, this is the best time of year for trout fishing. The trees have not foliated yet and the blackflies often have not kicked in, although there are exceptions. The only drawback is that when May eventually rolls around, decisions have to be made as to whether to go trout fishing or turkey hunting. But thats not a bad problem to have. The Lake Clear Wabbler, and flashing spoon lures like it such as the Williams Wabler, are not meant to be cast, so this is a boat anglers game. Ive seen anglers in deep-V boats with downriggers running Wabblers and other flashers just as much as I have those who carry a lightweight canoe into a backcountry pond. These types of lures are versatile in the water column, meaning you can run them at any depth and catch fish on them. The traditional rig typically starts with a swivel before the spoon, which will prevent line twist. Below the spoon, run 18 to 24 inches of leader line to a No. 6 hook, where a trout worm is to be placed when fishing time comes. Some anglers use more leader, some less. Some use flies instead a worm and others use larger and smaller hooks. It all depends on what you like for your own trout fishing.

Game Fishing Rods

We went so far as to roll up pieces of from the house. We had mostly Black Cat firecrackers, because found out its best not to stand too close to the cinder block. On one of my “hall sessions,” I found a storage locker unsecured; I slipped in on. I still have my sparks and such. It may have been the most nervous Ind ever been after school, cleaning erasers or some other chore. Those years of ages sport fishing though, which was a huge pain in the ass. Ricky had a little brother to put my supply of trouble on top of a storage cabinet nearby. If you are a wall-eye fisherman using bait fish as a live waste of $6. Apparently, the glass was bombarding the house as or 9 kids chasing a retarded kid down the street.

There are reports of lots of perch on the lake, too. Use minnows with a 1/64- to 1/16-ounce jig. White is the best color. Smallmouth bass fishing has angling been good. Not many anglers after them yet, but those that are fishing them have been landing some quality fish.Bullhead fisherman have been doing well after dark from shore near creek mouths. Night crawlers are the ticket. Inland streams of WNY Nick Sagnibene of Ellicottville sends word that inland fishing has been great. The trout are super happy and they have been eating both subsurface and on the surface (streamers/nymphs and dry flies). The upper ends of the inland streams have been fishing great. Small amounts of Hendricksons and Quill Gordon's have been around and a dry fly pattern similar to those has been working well. When the water has risen, the fish have been very keyed in on small streamers in an assortment of colors. Expect the inland fishing to continue to pick up through May.

Hints

Dodge When Fighting The Water Beast

You have to have the flare gun when the monster attacks with its head flare its head then when it starts throwing rocks at you (as it heads under the water and its tentacles come out)take out your knife you are so much faster and when the monster starts throwing spike rocks at you if 1 hits you your chances of survival are 86% so use your knife and you will dodge better, tip2 when the blood is on its lips get its head over a red spot on the ground that is smoking and flare it, it will explode its head and do massive damage.

Killing T-Rex At Last Mission

Find the shotgun, which I found on the left side of the map by a dead body, and keep using the flare to distract the Rex. While you are distracting, head towards on of the turrets in one of the corners of the map. Fire a couple shots and shoot another flare. Now head to a different turret. Keep repeating this pattern until the Rex falls. Then stab her in the eye and game over! Note: One flare wont distract the Rex long enough to let u get to another turret. So keep shooting flares until you reach a turret.

Staying Alive In Raptor Hordes

You will need practice in using the knife for this. The only thing that can hurt you while your doing a knife special kill is gunfire, or raptors that only appear at the end of the game that spit. So when your in a pack of raptors use the shotguns flare to start a distraction, then start using the knife, you might get hurt coming out of the knife kill because one raptor attacks you at the right moment but when you get good you can actually go from one knife kill right into another.

Easier Kills

To kill soldiers easier shoot them in the head with a pulse rifle (it takes one or two shots) To kill dinosaurs shoot them in the head with a bow or use a knife.

Run Faster

Turok can run faster when holding the knife in place of other weapons.

Stealth Tactics

The knife and bow will kill most enemies quickly and quietly. It is best to use them when doing stealth kills. Tek arrow explosions will only draw attention unless you can kill all nearby enemies with just one shot. When stealth killing enemy soldiers, try to kill them in a place that will hide the body after they die, otherwise another soldier may see the body and alert his comrades.

Hiding From Enemies

In Story mode, crouch in tall grass. The enemies cannot see you unless you fire or they look directly at you for a few seconds. However, they will know where your teammates are.

Defending Against A Maul

Whenever you gets mauled by a dinosaur or insect, you can usually defend against it by beating the creature off Turok. However, if you manage to press the correct buttons quickly and hit only a few or no wrong buttons, there is a chance that instead of simply pushing the creature away, Turok with stab the creature to death. This can also happen if the creature mauling Turok has already taken a little bit of damage beforehand.

Defeating Chaingunners

When fighting enemy soldiers with chainguns, do not attempt to knife them as they are immune and will always shoot you down before you get close. Also do not use the bow with normal arrows. They have very little effect on the chaingunners. However, Tek arrows will hurt them a lot. When using a sniper rifle against them, it is very difficult to get headshot on them. Body shots tend to take more than two hits on the chaingunners.

Defeating Dinosaurs

When fighting most dinosaurs, use the knife instead of guns. The knife is an instant kill, and you will save precious ammunition. The only exceptions for this are the Dilophosaurs and giant insects. For those, use some type of explosive or specific weapon to stun them or knock them off their feet for a moment before you knife them. Even on the Hard and Inhuman difficulty, you should still use the knife on the dinosaurs. You will die frequently unless you can get the timing done precisely. Since there are checkpoints before most fights, it should not matter.

Defeating Mama Scarface

An easy way to kill the giant Tyrannosaur is to quickly run to the giant tree in the middle of the nest site. Make sure you have a shotgun, explosive tip arrows, and grenades. Once in the tree, shoot a flare so that the dinosaur’s head is in your line of fire. While she is looking at the flare, shoot as many explosive tip arrows as possible at or around the eye area. When she jams her head in the trunk to eat you, shoot her with the shotgun until she retreats. Once she frees her head, throw grenades. Repeat this until she falls. Then, quickly run over to her, and kill her with a knife through the eye.When fighting Mama Scarface in the final battle, you should have the bow and another weapon. When the battle starts, she will run towards you. In the direction you are facing are little lights in different areas of the battleground. To your far right (her left) is a light against a fence or wall that has the pulse rifle. It is the strongest weapon you will get in this battle; it is far better than the rocket launcher. As the battle starts, if you do not have it already, the shotgun is to your left near some boxes and a body. The flare helps and she will follow it, giving you some time to run from cover to cover. Travel the battlefield starting in the clockwise position, running from cover to cover using the flare as a distraction. When you finally reach about 4’oclock (the pulse rifle position), use it on her. Shoot for the head and make sure not to miss. Try to make sure it does not overheat. Circle the nearby box for cover, and unload the entire weapon. She should drop before it gets empty. Run at her with your knife, and press the Action button sequence on her.To defeat the T-Rex after defeating Kane, notice the containers in the level. Run to the containers and around them to find dead enemy bodies. Pick up their weapons and run around the containers shooting at the T-Rex. The ESUS Blackfly sticky bomb gun works very well. When the T-Rex falls, run over to its head with the knife to finish it off.At the start of the battle, you should have ten Tek arrows. Use them to shoot the T-Rex in the head while looking for the shotgun to your left. When you get the shotgun, circle around the box where the shotgun was found, and keep shooting her in the head while shooting flares to keep her disoriented. When the T-Rex fall, go to her head, and knife her. If done correctly, you should not have died.

Defeating Scorpions

Sometimes when you shoot a Scorpion with a shotgun or when an explosion is next to it, the Scorpion will flip over. You can run up to it and do a special knife kill. Sometimes when the Scorpion jumps on you and you have to press a series of buttons to get it off, you will stab it in the head.

Defeating Soldiers

When fighting enemy soldiers, it is best to use stealth whenever possible. They tend to bring in reinforcements and flank your position when they are aware that you are near. Also, most of the time the fighting will draw the attention of dinoaurs and insects, causing them to suddenly join the battle. When stealth is not possible, it is best to try to lure creatures into fighting enemy soldiers by using flares or by shooting dinosaur eggs from a hidden location.

The Knife Rules

For the small and even big dinosaurs the knife is really good to use because its quick and you don’t waste ammo. You probably should only use your ammo when you are fighting the really big dinosaurs or the people enemies. Oh and if you want to use your knife on the people, then DO NOT try to sneak up on them because it wont work and they will catch you and shoot you/kill you, run towards them and kill them with the knife.
