Conspiracy Theory

To hear the poet read "Conspiracy Theory," click
Some local jokester with an education
must have chopped the street sign
no one's yet repaired, Nth Circle,
it reads in full, pointing to a pointless hell,
half-circle cul-de-sac endlessly turning
around and back. Too easy
to read in the drought-blasted shrubbery
