6/22


The corn is nigh on six feet tall along the mile 
Long fields to and behind the house. This year, I will 
be hemmed in

Held closed by this crop. This year I can bear that. 
A few years since the last the corn grew,
Cloaking, Guarding sentinels. 

This year I can tolerate if no longer embrace how
The corn limits views. Only this year do I feel strength
To do so.
