CENTRAL AVE.

Along the avenue a regiment of trees

stood rigid, and in the house as big as a

Saturday the clocks ticked on amid stagnant air,

slack doorknobs, paint chips—

the rumble of casings and pocket doors.

Such images culled from memory

travel in a slow migration

of thought, clogging the throat with things.

From the old garage that clung to the flanks of the house

like a lesser organ to the girl who dragged a bicycle

out by its neck, past the grease pit, ice pick, wood beams

and the grass that waited for no one.
