Reading the Same Headlines Later in My Life
Proverbs 27:22
While grinding the grain,
I watched a bird swoop past.
It was a sortie, a dive bomber
releasing the hoard of fury.
I kept grinding and grinding,
using the moisture
as an emulsifier for ease
in action. No one should notice
the tiny scud missiles
finely brayed into the meal.
