I've seen this a couple of places now, and the teasers keep confusing me--I keep wondering why we're publishing an interview with Joe Hill (a/k/a Hillstrom, the IWW songwriter and organizer), who was executed on November 19, 1915 for a murder he almost certainly did not commit.

Says I, "But Joe, you're ten years dead,"
"I never died," says he.

How odd. I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night.

You should write a song about it.

Joe Hill's Last Will and Testament:

My will is easy to decide,
For there is nothing to divide.
My kind don't need to fuss and moan --
"Moss does not cling to a rolling stone."

My body? Ah, If I could choose,
I would to ashes it reduce,
And let the merry breezes blow
My dust to where some flowers grow.

Perhaps some fading flower then
Would come to life and bloom again.
This is my last and final will.
Good luck to all of you.

Joe Hill
