quotes

• his shoulder globed like a full sail
• the horses strained at his clicking tongue.
• An expert.
• At the headrig, with a single pluck of reins,
• mapping the furrow exactly.
• I stumbled in his hobnailed wake, Fell sometimes on the polished sod
• Sometimes he rode me on his back
• I wanted to grow up and plough
• I was a nuisance, tripping, falling, yapping always.
• But today it is my father who keeps stumbling behind me, and will not go away
