that was never there

the old men
will tell you, all with
the same
wide eyed
look of amazement,
that
this area here used to
be a farm,
people road
their horses, down
the dirt road.
they point
to where a dunkin
donut shop
is and
a mr. tire, and tell you.
that was never
there.
and that plot of land
over there
where the town houses
are,
and the mall,
that used to be a swamp,
we'd fish
there.
