Surreal Ads


The telephone pole
on this lonely corner
breaks my heart.
It is a voodoo of "Lost & Founds",
help wants, and sale ads.

"Lost... One soul,
dirty brown and well-worn.
No Reward."

"Hopes Wanted...Give up within."

"Half Price hearts...
ragged,slightly abused, and scarred underneath."

Everything is important yesterday
and uncertain in six tomorrows
away from knowing.
We have no secrets
the crows do not share.
