Notes: list poem; inspired by this photo of a Nebraska (USA) plain, also for [community profile] 100words prompt: distant


in the middle of nowhere—wide, flat plains—
off the beaten path—cut by a dirt road—like coffee stains
the back of beyond—a little white house—flat fields unsowed
god knows where—a rectangular dot of cream among brown and brown—
in the boondocks—solitude in a frame—a ways from town—quite a ways and quiet ways
in the sticks—where nothing is close—and everything looks the same for miles and miles—and miles and smiles of godforsaken horizon—
yonder—where everything is far-off—except the land and the sky—
and—somewhere distant—an engine hums
