about a garden hose

about a garden hose – 5.29.2007 (1)

 

Hardware stores you gain popularity

That lies between the function and the role

Lying there as a green rubbery hole

Spewing forth a false rain with clarity

Filling in a gap existentially

Replenishing the earth from worm to mole

Greenest grasses with praise that they extol

I cannot believe the disparity

 

With placement on the righteous advancement

Of a greener sustainable planet

You allow the people to smooth out drought

Water mind flowers; softening cement

This replacement cannot hurt us, can it?

Our earth it weeps, there is no time for doubt
