Back Again
They've taken it away,
those officers.
There on the green it had remained
for several days,
giving off a strangeness of sorts,
strangeness, of course.
Yes, this kind of thing
happens from time to time.
The officers who have been here
will be here again. Oh, sure!
Yes, it will have to be removed,
taken away, put away in a place,
after several days.
We talk of it at times,
and to it,
of course.
Before those officers take it away.
