digging in the dirt
i discovered roots
someone buried long
ago
with an ear to earth &
a strum with a thumb,
those old roots still
sung
of a time
running through a forest
always towards nothing
again & again &
again
roots

Oh, I like this imagery a lot, stumbling across a person’s roots, listening to their song. There’s a lot of beauty in that.

Sometimes in our own back yard.
