born with earth in your hand by Carissa DeweyToday you are
a gardener-
You were born
with earth in your hand
you
you are a gardener
you own an understanding
and it owns you.
and I cant blame you-
your understanding
and how the scent of
dark deep earth thrives inside
of you
but sometimes
I lay naked
and we love naked
here in this small town,
we must think we belong together.
how can I tell
when you stay quiet
and I am yearning to be born?
