In our neighborhood park, we
looked for shade, a tree perhaps
that might grow tall with large leaves
to shield us from the hot summer sun,
where the students might play beer pong,
we might sell our goods at our annual
yard sale, or sit and read a good book
watching the world walk by.
We look up wistfully at first, then
notice the solution, so many shoes
hanging from the telephone wires
overhead.
