Poet's Tilth

We poets

weed 

our words

from the desert

garden

rife

with riffle

and

raven

droppings

We poets

root

out

magnetite

inspiration

from

 Tupperware

and tea leaves

We poets

harrow

and

sow

the page

with pip

 ink

and fire

until

the

trees

tremble

and

the

sea

sighs
