magic corn and summer storms

 

1. This is the corn before I watered it today.

It hadn't rained in MONTHS.

I hadn't watered it in days.

No other plants had water on them.

It was humid this morning.

Is this corn magic?

 

2. Summer skies, today.

Heavy, sluggish air.

Under increasing clouds,
I spin white string
to marry the beans to the sky.
