"Life Lesson"
Through orderly canyons and complex glass cubes we talked a way in fumes and neon names to this: a few acres of fruit trees, a few rented rooms that precisely measure the size of our ambition to be the world.
You said a garden spade of soil outpopulates cities, contains more movement than the designs of industry, even if to the unaware, it's just a pound of humus whitened by roots and stones, a gesture cast aside by the hole we've dug ourselves.
So it is that our dreams simplify, our plans reduce all origins to a handful of order, a few hard words, or a hole in our garden.
