but not the trees
into the soft wet of the afternoon
We have retreated
into this decadent warmth,
fleeing the frenzy of the work
and the chill of the dampness,
choosing this luxury bubble
which proves
we aren't wholly rooted
in the rigors of homestead living -
we can watch it
like reality TV
through the glass
at least for a while.
