about a couple
hundred and maybe some odd
dozen geese
spread out wide—
across
the chilly rolling
spearment-
colored land development
just refuse!
to read the honking
double-
sided roadside sign
in who's great shadow they
currently presume to reside—
Look
Out—There's Gonna
Be A
Brandnew Outlet
Mall Here
Come Next Year—it swears—come hell
or come
high water!—I guess
they must be
betting on the latter.
