still propagated
by the hopeful and precious
that one in five miles
of the Interstate Highway System
was built arrow-straight
for the landing of military planes
should action be taken
in case of invasion.
Whenever one is noticed
I light up a smoke
like a tender votive candle.
Let the meek have
their comforting fallacy.
There are worse lies
on the airwaves
produced by lower men.

"Dirty Work" by Larry Brown.
