The Street Lamp

a lonely street lamp stands at the end

of the cul-de-sac...  light is dispersed

in all directions, forming a cross if

viewed properly...  it is this cross that

tends to be the focal point of the small

group of houses that bend around the

road as if formed by a machine...  and,

the machine that might be used is one

that is made in Germany, not China,

just as far as not being made in our

America...   still, when our America

bleeds so too do all her residents as

they had been directly cut by the

knife in the hand of the ganster...

it is this ganster that stands under

the street lamp at the end of the

cul-de-sac directing traffic as if it

just purchased a house and wanted

to make sure it was being protected.
