we're all so jaded. like,
when's the last time you shit yourself in awe
of the abundance in your supermarket's
produce
aisle?
better that you don't literally, but it should
never be taken for granted. maybe
it's just too big an
achievement to comprehend. perhaps it's
easier to get a
sense of the miraculous at a smaller
scale, such as a single
tree, aged
and gnarled, limbs so laden with apples
they need
crutches to keep from snapping under their own
weight.
slavko invited us to pick his so we balanced
atop ladders
and filled two crates. this after he, possums,
bugs, birds,
and raccoons all got theirs, because food
should be free.
