the neighborhood horror movie

not far

away i hear someone using

a saw,

a chain saw

perhaps.

the rough

and loud buzz

of it

permeating the air.

i hear the cutting of wood,

maybe a tree fell,

maybe a deck is going up,

maybe

an addition is being

added

to the back room of someone's

house.

or maybe

someone is making a scary movie,

chasing scantily clad

women about,

then finding them

in the shed,

trembling in the dark.
