an obituary for someone elses farm

using maps to decipher land for reference I use pivots no longer in existence dried up circles evaporated on outdated maps Im sending letters to dead farmers IN a dead mans office i find large pine cones boots maybe his seed corn caps everything still frozen in place like a shrine important notes and phone numbers no longer used on a disconnected phone these letters go unnoticed they wait in boxes or are sent to fraudulent land trusts forgotten by trusties
