Leaf blowers
Today the season of leaf blowers began
8am the neighbors to the south west
Like clockwork
The endless piercing drone of multiple machines
I pray for rain
It is overcast and chilly
I do a rain spell in my mind
How is it that cow herds will be eliminated
But these gas guzzling noise pollutions
Will be allowable?
The magnificent mile here in town
With landscaping crews lined up and down the Main Street
A chorus of high decibel gas powered noise pollutants
This was not how spring was meant to be.
Never ending landscaping and building
More New Yorkers
More Californians
More Texans
I despise them
I despise their herds of worker bees
All Venezuelan
It used to be local boys with the landscaping
Small crews
Manual manicured yards
Now all is machines
Tree eaters
Standing motors
Electric trimmers
Pool cleaners
Decorators
Architects
Developers
Realtors
Lawyers
I find it all disgusting
Bloated
Airbrush
Without soul
Droning soulless leaf blowers
