CHOPPING BLOCK
by Joanna Gilman Hyde
The Hawk Hallway 9:00am
Today is a beautiful day
for selling an island property
& Hunter awoke with a dream
of David Wilson going sailing
–
The Hawk Portico 10:30am
Today is Black Friday
& I’ve got an island property
on The Chopping Block
My Realtor is going out to Mc Nutt’s
@ 2 o’clock this sunny high tide
with a prospective buyer from Maine
who’s made His Offer
& paid His Deposit —
He Just Has To See It
Nothing like adding a little silver and gold to Black Friday!
Great timing with that dream and I love The Chopping Block, it has great significance in this poem.
Thanks Jackie. I would love to talk to you about this significance which I don’t feel I’m fully aware of yet.
