Notes About The Poem

A Question

A dog
wanders down the road
sniffing
snuffling
head raised
suddenly
alert
to protect
	
    why

*    *    *

A wall
built ten feet high
stone upon stone
brick upon brick
hides the outside

    why

*    *    *

A crack
in the wall
craggy
splintery
light shines thru

    why
