  2. i look out over the field
    and use my fingers to pull tangles from my hair.
    i not so carefully divide it into three.
    i have little patience for anything done too well.
    and i make a braid i never thought i would have.
    i throw it across my shoulder
    and let it find its place.
    i feel the weight of it down my back
    as though i am a woman with a history,
    a woman i never believed i would be
    but yet the evidence is here.
    it rests like a hand,
    many generations of women before me.
    i have him take a picture of my braid.
    he dosen't know why i have him take my picture
    but just as the farmer will collect the wheat
    he is helping me hold fast to my history.

    i love you very much
    and will be untethered
    between now and 5:30
    when you'll wind me once again
    as a braid.
