POEM: F-16

Sometimes life is a walk in the neighborhood. Sometimes not.

F-16

I was strolling in my neighborhood
Trying to avoid
The usual noise pollution
From technological whored
A roaring lawnmower hear
A gas weed whacker whacking there
A whirring leaf blower going nowhere
Then
A rare moment of silence
Over taken
By a supersonic rumble
From the loco air farce
My years war out
No’ing the score
F-16

F-16
A eulogy of a different stripe
Silence not sufficing
