the rocking chair,
the old one on the south porch, rocks.
moving rhythmically
back and forth
empowered
by an unseen being.
ghost?
an apache warrior
who died in battle,
a spanish explorer
claiming new territory,
portuguese priest
saving souls,
Scottish settler
taming the land,
italian farmer
planting seed,
or is it
just the wind?
