hands in dirt
I build butternut mounds
lift stones from tilth
left in Pleistocene
ice-age bones kicked-up day before
by big gas machine
crows hop from row to row
stab bills in ground
come up each time
with grub, worm or millipede
snap turret heads around
I’m still …. still …..
—but twitch
three go
they levitate into a tree
I sow
I drop seed after seed
