February
Construction
By Terra Wolfe
Abomination,
bulldozers.
Scars,
scores winter brown grasses.
Ruts
of thaw water
trickle
mud,
beyond ankles,
beyond grief
Dragons,
in patterns
of cooperation,
destroy, destroy.
Orchards
of firewood.
Earth
still clings to bare roots
like
tears of tree ghosts.
No
pheasant sound.
No rabbits.
Monsters
carpet mud with mortgages.
Rye
and fescue summer,
meticulously
mowed.
