#ely
I drove a raised road
which gave a view of fields
much different to home
though mere miles away
vast, dark-rich soil potential
where words couldn’t fail to grow
but in a syntax not my own
There, the syllables of rushes stood clear
arrogant, apparent
with no lost edges or liminal blur
where I would speak my words
Heading back, a driveway sign said:
ROSES, BEANS
and now, at home
I’m lost to what that means
