Try and trivial, but also trope.
low gall, low-key, or look all
but also, global.
Frame of forgetting
forget me not
forgotten tribe
forget your reusable bag.

I planted black-red pearl stones
in the earth
gray and matted without rain.
3 weeks later
I crunch on the miracle of hot
magenta radish.
I marvel at the ease of the miracle. I may still
starve, the green grease of the furry leaves
left
ama on my tongue.
A bitter spiciness,
hope buried in the roots of the weeds that
crowd out my tuber crop.
The newt was crushed
between bent rocks
remembering their days in farm fields
as they reveal and crown
from the labial dirt road.

Cardinal directions anewed
seeded the brain hell-bent
South and Southerly.
Remember East.
Remember North.
Bring up, down and
within
to
bear.
