This was a project I did basically during the pandemic. I started writing a poem a day. Once ‘real life’ started again it got harder to write everyday, which is interesting.
trucks croak
outside my window
trucks croak
the saws buzz
hammers bark
workers caw
the machinery cackles
the frogs, bees, fox, crows and geese
are silent
instead of birds
outside my window
large and loud
working crews
trucks churn and crowd
instead of birds
chirp chirp chirp
hammers pound
metal grinds and burps
