the new age babble

the farmer,
rugged and tired,
holds a shovel up to the neighbor
next door
who owns
the apple orchard
and who has been
reading
Echart Tolle's books.
you have to live
in the moment,
he tells the farmer,
forget the past,
now is what matters,
the present is everything.
the farmer
looks out over the field
that he needs
to plow,
he sees the work he's
done, and what
he has to do.
he hopes
the sky is full of rain.
he tells the apple orchard
man he has
ten seconds to get off
his land.
