Out in my garden Junk all around Outside my window Sun beating down Hot as a heat lamp Strange buzzing sound Out in my garden Life can be found Large flying insects Small birds of prey And tiny green reptiles Say "Have a nice day" And last Sunday's paper Rots on the ground There amid the wreckage Wild flowers abound Out in my garden Rust all around Red on the metal Sun beating down '49 Plymouth Engine and frame Naked, not sacred Feeling no shame
