02 — In My Words
People ate until their fingers purpled.
When it rains, the petrichor released from the land wallops your soul, smelling like a heady perfume of sage and almond paste.
Weeks before I sliced my Thanksgiving turkey, he sliced me.
This is the apex desert food that today's suburbanites sweep from yards into trash bags, that pops unnoticed under car tires and browns like rock — while millions of people instead buy wheat flour trucked in from the Midwest.
Mounted on 9-foot-tall beams, so lofty a tractor could pass below them, the solar panels slant against the blue sky of the high desert, throwing shade on the short rows of basil and onions beneath.
Gnats arc through the sunlight, bobbing and flitting erratically, randomly. Invisibly, so do tiny yeasts. Wort steadily climbs the sides of the 130-gallon coolship, bubbling madly and soapily, wisping steam.
And then the land will be, this wild part of it at least, but for global warming, quiet stories, and loud ghosts, just as it was 1,000 years before.
