SHE HATED A MOWN LAWN. MAYBE THAT WAS BECAUSE MOW WAS THE REVERSE OF WOM, THE BEGINNING OF THE NAME OF WHAT SHE WAS—A WOMAN. A MOWN LAWN HAD A SAD SOUND TO IT, LIKE A LONG MOAN. FROM HER, A MOWN LAWN MADE A LONG MOAN. LAWN HAD SOME OF THE LETTERS OF MAN, THOUGH THE REVERSE OF MAN WOULD BE NAM, A BAD WAR. A RAW WAR. LAWN ALSO CONTAINED THE LETTERS OF LAW. IN FACT, LAWN WAS A CONTRACTION OF LAWMAN. CERTAINLY A LAWMAN COULD AND DID MOW A LAWN. LAW AND ORDER COULD BE SEEN AS STARTING FROM LAWN ORDER, VALUED BY SO MANY AMERICANS. MORE LAWN COULD BE MADE USING A LAWN MOWER. A LAWN MOWER DID MAKE MORE LAWN. MORE LAWN WAS A CONTRACTION OF MORE LAWMEN. DID MORE LAWN IN AMERICA MAKE MORE LAWMEN IN AMERICA? DID MORE LAWN MAKE MORE NAM? MORE MOWN LAWN MADE MORE LONG MOAN, FROM HER. OR A LAWN MOURN. SO OFTEN, SHE SAID, AMERICANS WANTED MORE MOWN LAWN. ALL OF AMERICA MIGHT BE ONE LONG MOWN LAWN. A LAWN NOT MOWN GROWS LONG, SHE SAID: BETTER A LONG LAWN. BETTER A LONG LAWN AND A MOLE. LET THE LAWMAN HAVE THE MOWN LAWN, SHE SAID. OR THE MORON, THE LAWN MORON. • SHE HATED A MOWN LAWN.
