BIG BALLS

 

BIG BALLS

As I waited for my car

To be inspected nearby

I found myself in the middle

Of a bocce court

From the Land of the Giants

Whoever designed the area in Briarwood

Between the eastbound  and westbound lanes

Of Queens Boulevard

Placed huge concrete balls

Along the sides

What a funny place 

So I sat on one of the few benches

As a man walking his dog passed by

I thought of reading my book 

When I spotted

Underneath the bench across from me

A dead rat 

And many hungry flies

While I appreciated the arrangement

Of the park

I decided it was time to get up and  see

If my car was ready
