They drained that lake

And found a road

An actual piece

Of asphalt-covered

Going somewhere

intentional road

So a gully then

It must have been

Before some flood

Or damn break

Like a deep deep flaw

In the psyche of a man

That no one expected

And so all we’re surprised

To see his dead body

At the scene of a crime

In a place where frankly

He had no reason to be

But for that road

He journeyed on

Buried really really deep
