Ride

I ride my bicycle down the empty

morning street, DiTullio’s selling his house

another is already contingent

the realtor sign in front of the Irma-flooded

house is now a dumpster titled

nature’s calling, the half-built house

rises to two peaks, a plywood bridge 

between, suppose one’s for he

the other for she, or one’s for lowly beasts

taro fills the ditches, rose of sharon

lavenders a green fan, parked trailers

bear boats, a concrete pig wears

a blue mask, caution tape & orange cones

swag a muddy verge . . . pedal, pedal on
