SORT OF LOOKS LIKE NEAR HOME

Pictured a power plant,

Smallish–that I’ll grant–

Like one during a sally

Down Pig Alley,

Coal-fed from a trestle and conveyor sent.

–

Steam pipes underground,

Making steam pipe sounds…

In all the buildings

Radiators refilling,

On State Hospital grounds!

–

Bare patches steam across roads,

Where the big steam pipe goes…

In all directions

And intersections,

Into buildings and staff abodes.
