A stranger, delicate conversation,
first sapling
sweet yeast,
handmade corn tortillas.
This moment,
a terminal demonstration
12 minutes from
childhood,
all the fine beasts
broken. Soft eyes close
in 10 fragile ways.
The pony's bridle, cart
a cornered, tattered toy.
Try to imagine it.
The great plunge
foundered, finally.
Hard to keep
the last mares
from bolting forever into the fields.
