Yesterday, the land went dry
I sprinkled ash of my neighbor's urn
Over the yard
Sprinkled in the hope
That should i cut out
A pie wedge
I would find the gold
Buried in the ground
Between the gra** and growth
Instead the earth skin cracking
And a great wind, more ash
Slivers of the ground burning in the eyes
Of ones, who standing there...
Long ago, when it all began
The dog would dig the ground
And whisper, "master, come to the garden
By your hand to the spade, cut away behind your house
Cut away for coins. cut away to the buried..."
