ACCOUNT OF MY DAYS
Sequence: 3
WHAT IT KNOWS
an invisible warning
has been placed where
there is the least traffic
and anyhow they found a reason
to detour even that away
unfortunately you know
what it says anyway
lightning high winds
defective products
drops or rises in pressure
innocent bowel complaints
that signal something worse
taking their responsibilities seriously
public officials diverted traffic
and made sure the sign
was not only unreadable
but unnoticeable
an informed public
needs to forget what it knows
