MORNING GLORIES
Blue
and dark
blue rose and
deepest rose white and
pink they are everywhere in
the diligent conrnfield rising and swaying
in their reliable finery in
the little fling of
their bodies their
gear and
tackle
all caught
up in the cornstalks.
The reaper's story is the
story of endless work of work
careful and heavy but the
reaper cannot separate

they are
in the story
of his life bright
random useless
year after
year
taken with
the serious tons
weeds without value
humorous beautiful
weeds.
