the "stewart place"




life

 

the lot's full of pokeweed

the corral's

more rust than iron

 

the pasture's gone to johnson grass

the creek

took out the gap   again

 

the mrs's blood sugar's high

yours truly's

all but deef   the dog died last april   the pastor's taken up

 

with jelly johnson's wife   calf prices

are in the cellar 

the bull went through the neighbor's fence   again

 

all in all   things are as expected   not good   not bad

just about as expected

There's a lot of life in life, loving the Stewart Place pic. The bull went through the neighbours fence again, took me back to my childhood.
