what the boy saw

a sluggish snake of water in morass

black against vulgar green and very slow

the map names it broad river how i know

 

that is a lesson for another class

where you may ask about what lay below

a sluggish snake of water in morass

 

as dark and hostile as volcanic glass

but lacking any memory of glow

simple and steady in its westward flow

a sluggish snake of water in morass
