A chapter in the book Worlds

Mole World 4

by Bill Schott

The winding subterranean highway

painstakingly plowed beneath the sod,

creates a hazard to pedestrian traffic

as they stumble in softened soil -- "God!"

This play is the tragedy, "Lawn";

and its hero, the Conqueror Mole.




Final two lines an homage to Poe's, The Conqueror Worm.
( That the play is the tragedy, "Man"; )
( And its hero, the Conqueror Worm. )
