men with their hoses

the word
rape
seems so appropriate
as I watch
thick liquid spew
the length
out of pipe
and into
surrounding water
killing, invading
the southeastern seaboard
of the United States
like so many men
with their hoses
they have no idea
how irresponsible...

how dare you
make this mess
and not clean
up after
like so many men
with their hoses
just another game
