A solid concrete poem, Ed. How the horizontal factory takes over the landscape and still the ball field survives. Go Tigers, from a fellow Detroiter. Reply
I liked it too, although I didn't get the reference until I read your comment – but it still resonates, even in rural England where we know nothing of ball industrial wastes or even ball (baseball?) games. The tension is universal. Reply
