(or) baa, humbug
so long
mile after mile
ready to flow through
all that upright wood
all those steel droppers
- the wire pulse -
then - there it is -
the first lean back
to the middle of the road
sheep’s head-butted
greener pastures so
close for the taking
and for miles after that
the list to the right
almost lying down in places
but still connected
and what was to be kept out
is now kept in
