eighteen holes

i'm not a golf person
but i like the look of a golf course.
how green it is.
the manicured
lawns.
the little flags blowing
in the breeze 
off a pole on each hole.
i like the slopes of the fairway,
and the sand traps,
like gaping
mouths awaiting an errant swing.
the bikini waxed greens.
i like the costumes
they wear.
the civility of it all.
yelling fore and what not before
striking the ball.
it's  a beautiful cemetery
without the headstones.
