Sad Country Road

a broken window 
twenty-two thrown out tires 
no dumping signs now 

it is a challenge 
next day silver car bumper 
country road saddened

22 thrown-out tires ~ no dumping sign: Sounds like one neighborhood over from mine in Chicago, specifically a house right next to the METRA train station. We are all 'country!' ~ 9.95 gallon hat

Oooo, it would be great to set the tires on fire and roast marshmallows and weenies. We used to do that with two or three when I was a teenager. Twenty-two would make one helluva fire, wouldn't it?
