They’ve taken Saturday’s rain away
with future promises
like plastic magic debt
no one intends to pay.
We’ve been here before,
crooning to godesses
not to forget us
like the hopeless homeless.
We are this ground
rooted into the future
like the plodding lives of cattle,
trusting, trusting, trusting….

Bad enough we can only pray for moisture to nourish us, but how do we trust the 4 processers that import beef, raise the retail prices, but only pay a rancher only the price of feed (if lucky), and the laborer even less. They have put so many ranchers out of business. Yet they get away with price gouging and price fixing agreements with themselves.
