Dirt and Spoons
Back yard desert
My world for the noon
Red dirt from the river
The one that I can spell:
A...R.K.AN..SAS
A kitchen spoon is the very best tool for today
And my dog is here to watch me
Watch me dig
Dig tunnels in the Oklahoma heat-
Deep, cool tunnels I can stick my whole arm through
Plastic animals explore their depths
And I bury trinkets and sticks and hopes for later on
This is my playground
In the 99 degree heat
A spoon, red dirt, and my dog
