el otro / I am / the other / soy yo

I am the other
What structure
falls over
or under
obstruction
the truth
a truck
ran over
turned concrete
crushed destruction
near a current corner

Never earn an ear
for sirens
are serious torrents

Never live too dear
on one avenue
love a lane or golden road
name a damn and damn the land
or Old Man River
absolutely

Dear Mr. Mean Norman Oldam:
Deal real god. Do not drivel. Read nil
& know oblivion—scant shelf on the corner.
I own her,
who earned a living as a dove
a sieve for amen
and all other ends

Am I the other I am
the other I am
other than I
