Photography by my cousin, Walt Bullard...



Poem Artwork



What’s left of these ears?
Flat broke in a winter field. . .
Stalks for crow to sing?

Zea, Zea, Zea mays, Zea!

O’ would I had cornbread now!
Zea-mazed. . .  I’d break e’en!

Keep the kernels, two!
One of each gender, sounding. . .
Songs for stems for booze!

Imagine 20 below zero, the wood lot stark and bare in the glistening sun. A trail of small tracks a country mile to withered corns stalks in deep snow from the trees. An ear abandoned halfway there, and twenty fire fox squirrels, fat with fur in February, playing love in the branches against the blue sky.

The Incas knew better than the schmuck conquistadores, they had chicha to drown their sorrows and plenty maize to brew more!
