Road kill is like little Persian rugs,
little bear skin throws,
little swaths of natural fabric,
little tears of mohair sweater,
little samples of cotton polyester,
little cuts of living room carpet,
little trims of indoor/outdoor,
little clown wigs on the ground,
little peach fuzz on the chin,
little slices of smoke-stained beard,
little threads of human weave,
little mohawks on the freeway,
little crew cuts in the right lane,
little pigtails off the exit,
little French braids at the stoplight,
dead pillar box red.
