FALL 2001
Sondra Ball
Mickleton MMThese houses and lawns
shaded by oaks and maples
conceal skeletons.
These wild red roses
grow over femurs and skulls,
hiding smallpox marks,
bullet holes, rope burns.
At night, moving in shadows,
passing through dark walls,
warriors are walking.
They wait patiently haunting
homes of Conquerors.RETURN TO TABLE OF CONTENTS
