Wooden bodies
Rough and scarcely
Hewn
Features from a nightmare
Or a dream?
What's the difference?

Coils of wire
Cold and grey
Shimmering with dew
Crackling with electricity

Raindrop footsteps
Wind rustling laughs
Anger like the spark of a plug

Swaying
Swaying
Swaying
To soundless music
Or not.
Soundless to me and you
Melodious to them
Those fence goblins
Gremlins of the hedges

Wood and wire
Earth and sky

Those fence goblins.
