culture wars


two fairies waving wands furiously
at the river at the seaside
making frogs

argument out the window


the sirens blare in the street quite openly
that is the basis of all legislation
agriculture and jurisprudence
three Roman words for it

the walls have loudspeakers
the streets have eyes

it comes in the window


a pot of flowers under a table
under a cursing
lot of gentlemen
gathered there to snicker
after a long day of work

the dog is in the yard
snuffling the rosebushes
the air is blue
the sun is in it

at work
the staves are broken in
to stock or stone
