unsprung spring

unsprung spring

March in chaste by javelin tears 
bright sun bright upon the wind
  see how
the lakes are lapping
and the geese are yapping 
all’s right with the world
       but look
the machines are shitting asphalt
the daffodils are appalled for
the cause is cars
  so you must
turn now to the old songs
the compost Memphis 
of the seeds of youth 
  sit
so bewildered now 
and for evermore say 
I was there
