The Cornfield, 2019, Archival Digital Print
It was a long slog through last week.
Deep snow, unable to get out of the driveway to get to the train
I missed school on Monday,
I was supposed to chair a panel for Senior Survey, and
My reliable plowman didn’t get my messages
On it went, one thing after another.
But what there was
Was my favorite cornfield
Its orderly geometry penciled in the snow.
