Issue 12 • March 2014
the warm-season cereals occuring
slight reedy events of the soil
verve of the flooded milky steppes
frost-flaked capillaries of wyoming
the farmer stands like a finger
on the pulse of the seasons
reap and sow
reap and sow
the lightness of hand-planting Poaceae
in gentle rows, the spry impatience
of single cotolydon plants,
bulbs of the inflourescent harvest
small wonders of the world
sustain us
reap and sow
reap and sow
