in our yard
|
how many chickens can we count
|
on our fingers and toes
|
on their toes
|
sitting on father's hole
|
sitting on his chest
|
crushing rocks of dirt
|
the earth is soft in our
|
yard yard
|
stones in my shoes
|
and feet
|
dragging them through museums
|
where
|
under glass
|
refridgerate
|
freeze
|
hands and feet
|
and knobbly knees
|
yard yard
