Honorable Mention
Dead End Road
Lisa Janice Cohen

Shadows sharpen the fields,
play over acres of corn--
long harvested. Hawks
hang overhead,
scan the stubbled land.

Along the road, the carcass
of bleached, split wood.

Cows huddle
beneath the darkening sky.
A pear tree reaches up,
offers late treasures
as the sun torches
scythed hay.

The same light ignites
the barn, the skeletons
of half built homes,
illuminates the signs--

low 90's
3 BR
financing available


A line of green
tractors--an honor guard
as the farms pass out of sight.
