tendons and corrosion



the southbound lanes of the
bridge are closed
its worn out tendons have
given way
the exterior cracks and flakes
over the river
corrosion festers and is
staying for awhile

as do we, crack and flake
and wear away
our construction, flawed and
exposed, susceptible
the weathering will continue
in forms and fits
as must we, temporarily close
for repairs
