                  It

         The dancing dog dangles his man on a
         chain. In the dark alleyway the WClman
         with sil~r eyelids is talking to herself
         again. A dustbin stUffed with rotting
         flowers. A violin crying in an attic
        bedroom.
        The woman rolls a twisted cigarette.
        In the distance the sound of ri ver
        boats, howling.

                                         --Dave Ward
