In Nebraska There's the Wind
December 18, 1995
In Nebraska There's the Wind
and there're the things
that're blown by the wind and
there's the white-flecked gray
of a jack rabbit's back and
the looming shadow a groundhog makes
and the lulling sway of dandelion stalks
blooming bright yellow and the
bleached bones of a coyote's skull
and the waving lines of geese
bound for Havana with no
particular political portfolio
to speak of. And there's harmony,
too. And the sand.
