Driving Iowa 163


The horizon: corn fields
always corn fields stretching
brown unending waves
of brown waves waiting
patiently for the sounds
of harvest waves rolling                                       
rolling toward each other
because nothing
else is left I sail on waves
not feeling the waves
the leaves brown
and brittle tear at my skin.
