Forbear
Remove just one of them

Kudzu resurgent as when it arrived
But why did it recede in the first place

A blacked-out Mustang roars
So anxious of manhood the young man

The English intruder sounds the monotonous chirp
Whither is fled the song sparrow

Emily poisoned by markets and autotune
Can’t abide a voice singing in a room

The acolytes fly their colors and their shibboleths
The better to identify the foe

A child dies of diarrhea
In this land of poverty

Long-legged daisies made me smile
But only on one side
