The dry
The blades of grass are begging
to each heavy, floating cloud.
Robins hop through a foreign desert
devoid of worms; no surface life.
The corn, planted early, is too-tall, dry;
the farmers have said all their prayers,
danced their dance,
and now wonder what more to sacrifice.
This Midwestern earth needs rain.
