a red wheel

chickens.' William Carlos Williams
A whole house depends on three wheels
on a rusty wheel barrow, lined in grit,
glove-fitted for the launch of the season
settling beside a wrinkled, ever green tree
but much more depends on the aged olive,
rooted since the begging of time
placing platefuls on the makeshift box turned table.
