employed

My arms are employed today

With the fact and forth

My muscles seem to sway

Sweat on my brow

I paid attention for the first time to the moss-covered rock

A refuge from the tidal waves

A place to sit

I noticed that I had a hammock

I laid there for a while

Before going back to digging my space into the ground

The sun shines down and tells me I am just a son of yours

And no better than the mud between the cracks

I pushed with these arms again, the noonday on my back

And for the first time saw the ivy in the cracks
