FOR  SALE
by private treaty 
this desirable residence 
secluded area 
slowly the day turns 
disc on a turntable 
almost inaudible music of morning 
unchaperoned 
ripe for raping 
virginal membranes of glass 
when suddenly 
the needle flies out of the groove 
frustrated small boys smash windows 
hysterical small girls clutch their sympathies 
spellbound 
a rapid clatter of footsteps 
silence 
for sale 
(whispering?) 
after public treatment 
this slightly pathetic residence 
secluded area
