a new axis to grind




Dear Norm,

The Persians are paving
the foot of a hill
in Rockville
with
a bunch of Hispanic laborers
bearing heavy equipment in trucks
and, as if
that weren't enough,
i'm told
the Venezuelans up top
plan
a massive terrace operation
where the shade and the runoff
prevent
the Kentucky creeper
from taking root,
so, soon,
if the Man from
the Total Information Awarehouse
does not connect the dots,
and if
there is no sabotage
from the Quebecois
upon the slope, that whole hill
will be terraced
from tip to toe, and paved below,
and, although
it will then be too late,
we'll know
them all
for the Rockvillains
they are, right there
in this Nation's
capital's
suburb.
Quit dallying, Norm.
For shame.
