April 11, 2017Bids for Border Wall Now Being Taken
a found poem
One bidder wants
to cover it with solar panels.
Another suggests a deck
to offer tourists scenic views.
Traditional bids are interspersed
with more whimsical ideas
like polished concrete
studded with stones and
artifacts to make the wall a piece
of art. Designs must be able to
repel pickaxes and sledge-
hammers for at least an hour
and be aesthetically pleasing
from the north side.
