13.9.15


lazy lengths of gray sunburnt limbs lay contorted on a dried brown hillside above a cavity of brittle crumbling shale slag 

above the hillside
collapsed into a leaning chainlinked fence whose poured concrete postbases were exposed
is a faded black canopied babybuggey

he refused to climb the hill to the fence

or inspect the contents

   expecting
               if he did
hed find the dryrot carcass of a baby that made the babybuggy
                                                                     let some other hero discover it 

afternoon,  Sunday,  30  8. 15
defleshed 1610,  Sunday,  30  8. 15
