Below the bluffs,
across the street
from the white-washed condominiums
A crumpled McDonald's cup,
slick industrial polypropylene
beside a tire-flattened Tallboy,
Keystone Light
Popping off the plastic top
reveals a Lifestyles condom--
expended,
expendable
Across the highway,
across the spine of railroad-tracks,
vanish into black walnut
and golden corn.
September 2010
