real estate odes


2


someone does something with poles elsewhere

a path stops its neatly placed concrete
at stage two the developer bankrupt

off the pathway's tangent
grass meets mangrove edge and jetty spot

the tasteless rape of a lowland finally ends

***

in the wetlands in an un dredged lake
as reenactment from the african queen

barely at my knees
on sanded banks
movie vivid
further years back
waist or shoulder depth
depending on tide

***

why build these monsters here?

the way the jetty edges out
is house enough

the undeveloped
an intact hope
