soft

blurry

greens

yellows

browns

make this country what it is



an orange tractor

paused at the side

of the dirt road

with chipped paint

and dusty wheels

makes these people who they are



the little hands which so tightly grip the sides of the tractor

the careless way in which she sits atop it

the awareness in her mind of what the tractor stands for

the knowledge in her heart of the meaning of what lies behind her

and the way in which her eyes dare the world to tell her any different

make this child who she is
