Each to his own Ground

In the high country, people
aren't casual about the ground.
They notice grass, stumps,
worms. So many times
I've seen these people
reaching down as if to hold on.
But the peat-bog beople
eye the trees. Remember
storms. For them the birds
and stars get turned around -
the peat-bog people think
this true , but they won't tell
me how they know. And high
in the country where people
are rooting, holding on,
such thinking is a hoax.
Each to his own ground.

What if you were named as heir to a Will that you knew nothing about and members of your family were being kidnapped and tortured for information they didn't have? What if you went to the police only to find out the Russian Mafia and your own govern
