The Machine





The Machine

The mechanism is broken.
The chain creaks all night.
Nobody can get any sleep.
The wheel keeps turning,
pulling at something
that is no longer there.
The machine is rusty,
even the birds won’t nest inside
any more.
The field has given up,
retreating
before reed
and frogs.
