Sheffield Road by Angelina Valdez
Roll down the windowand drive fast.Faster.Feel the dirt.In your teeth,under your nails,in your ears. Drive fast.Past the smoke, taking it with you.See more in the distance.Smells like 2 miles.Speed down Sheffield.Drive past trucks, shovels,fire, flames.Generations of menleveling the fieldsthat they’ve spent the last months on,taking the mice with them.Controlled flames bycontrolling men, trying.
