Survivorman


Survivorman: newyorker.com
by Sherman Alexi

Here’s a fact: Some people want to live more

Than others do. Some can withstand any horror


While others will easily surrender

To thirst, hunger, and extremes of weather.


In Utah, one man carried another

Man on his back like a conjoined brother


And crossed twenty-five miles of desert

To safety. Can you imagine the hurt?


Do you think you could be that good and strong?

Yes, yes, you think, but you’re probably wrong.
