Iron Oxide

Iron Oxide
Child war bride
Hands of labor
Work from all sides

View encompass
Wide and wondrous
Dig and toil
Mountain soil

Holy hopeful
Tight back strain
Grinding gasping
Worn hands clasping

Claw the earth
Lay the seed
Churn with spittle
All you knead

Through the surface
Hopeful prayer
Hopeful purpose
Scents the air

Lavoro
​
Con la conga
Sulla testa 
O non si mangia
per la festa
​
Scarf headed
Bundled apron
Il vestito 
In finestra

Il Sole in your eyes
Warms the wife
In your sighs
​
A widowed wise life
