disordered world
the glaring white
carried to the mouth
locked to the land 
                hands drag blood
                from the wheels edge
                tied in the back
                thorn to the birds
unrest the godless
glean the shallows
grey weighted sky
heavy on dust
fire in the hillside
speed of winter
the wind
the wheat
the sky
