Development

By Joseph Farley

The street was not
on the map,
therefore,
it did not exist,

and the houses
which had sprung
from ghostly soil
were illusions
gone condo.


Joseph Farley edited Axe Factory for 24 years. His books include Suckers, For The Birds and Longing for the Mother Tongue (March Street Press).
