this one too!
Wheat Stalk

I am sleek and tall,
One of thousands,
Raised from seed,
My roots run shallow in fertile soil.
My hair stands on end
In constant anticipation of the future.

I sway to a song
The wind carries the beat.
The others and I dance
In synchronized rhythm until we are grown,
Awaiting the harvesters
To uproot me and give me meaning…
A natural, fibrous food.
