hydrant broke
after being struck by
a car, and spewed fifty
thousand
gallons of water in the street,
suddenly taxes
went up.
real estate prices increased.
we were suddenly
designated
as waterfront property.
we brought out
our lawn chairs
and took pictures, basked
in the sun.
dropped lines
into the water to fish.
it was a joyous time.
