Junkyards
by Julian Lee Rayford
You take any junkyard
and you will see it filled with
symbols of progress
remarkable things discarded
What civilization when ahead on
all its onward-impelling implements
are given over to the junkyards
to rust
The supreme implement, the wheel
is conspicuous in the junkyards
The axles and the levers
the cogs and the flywheels
all the parts of dynamos
all the parts of motors
fall the parts of rusting.
