                     Looking Over The Bridge (Built In 1936)
                                      by Will Dockery


    Freefloating ashes
    down slowly to the creek
    to the gunky dirty sewer creek.
    On a cigarette pack
    I write these words
    with an ancient pencil
    maybe sent down from God
    because my pen is lost.
    The sky's a murky pea soup
    but it will not rain
    there is no rain in this town
    those were different times.
    The city is overcast
    by bright grey transluscent shadows
    as I ride borther Dave's bike
    stop on this bridge for a smoke.
    I don't nessesarily want to go
    I have to go.
    Cigarette butt falls down quickly
    with a blur
    a swirling flourish
    then slowly moves downstream.
    What year was this bridge built?
    Seems so ancient
    I must remember to check the date on it
    when I leave it.

    -Will Dockery  5-5-99
