Sonnet: Angst No Prerequisite
I wanted to explain the muffin allusion, but Hurricane Dean
rode in to the rescue. Negligible monetary compensations
flooded into the area, just as national guard troops took it
on the lam. Nicaraguan streets resist Hellenization.
Unemployed Colombian drug czars compete with rabbits
for our neighbors’ lettuce, as all of Yokohama grieves.
Siding and roofing from houses blow through the streets,
getting on everyone’s nerves. Ezra squats outside, sitting
on his heels. Culturing turnips brought curious neighbors
to their windows amid howls of execration, bulldozing
all further thoughts of rapprochement. Plastic sheeting left
nothing to the imagination. Socialists flocked to the polls
for the first time in decades, as anarchists jeered. Poachers
made off with the last few heads of unquarantined stock.
