HORIZONS AREN’T EQUAL OUT HERE
The East is fine
for color on the way to the barn
but by the time the chores are done it’s gone
The rest of the day we watch the West
That’s where the weather comes from
That’s the direction the grandfathers faced
when they got this far and found
what they were looking for
or gave up
unhitched the horses
and sat down to watch the sun set
