Place

Phebe renders Greenville oldies.
Shelby’s generations, long gone
yet vividly alive, fill Benson
with hogs, dogs, fox hunts, & tobacco.
My parents’ set match final
takes place in a D.C. hotel.
A place changes when you know
someone who calls it home.
How & who? Where & what for?
Kittens plucked from a break-&-enter
raccoon, a hanging grandfather,
doctor dead set on hara-kiri.
If you can’t make the journey
at least take a seat, watch the movie.
