the air is still 

thick with dust 

 coating the rafters that     shimmer with 

its presence no matter the number of times the 

pressure-washer blasts 

             strips down 

              the bare wood 

vulnerable 

the flock writhes and bleats 

they know they will soon be 


 exposed 

as the wiry hair falls to the barn floor 

 razor buzzing 

one wonders if 

we are all just     sheep with     


nothing 

underneath                 the layers of wool
