This bridge is faulty
there is dry-rot taunting
the girders
Its spandrels:
all knobby-kneed..
Its pseudo-elaborate trusswork,
as if designed
by a lonely drunk
It's pilings.. questionable
Its deckwork, treacherous.
Its abutment--
*aw, **** me..*
its crumbling.
. .
If we cross over
under the lie of darkness
we won't be so afraid..
*But these structural-flaws,
when revealed by the sun
are so incredibly intriguing.*
Let's take that step
and see if it holds us.
