And I joined the Rice Bowl Journals too :-)
I've also added the Redblogger -- allows readers of Web Logs managed by Blogger to post comments on a post. Yup, and a new version of the said service is on the way.
sons of sisyphus
there are voices in the field
and ghostly footfalls of farmers
fallen like the yellow blades
on the breast of the earth
they came and poured their sweet
under the seething sun
they lived their lives away
and searched what was to be found
they are mere voices now
mingling with the wind
soothing those who come after them
softening the hardened hearts
of those who waste their adamhood
on the barren ground O
how would they know?
they speak no poetry
but the plaints of daily toil O
why would they care?
they only live for a moment
each night they pause awhile
and push their own rock again
when the sun climbs its ancient hill
