Raisins sprawled out on the grass.
He enters with eyes wide open-knowing there’s work to do.
Each raisin as important as the next.

Pause.

He’s comprehending his blueprints.

Resumes.

Stacking each like brick’s to a building.
Higher and higher it climbs,
like the temperature on a hot summer day.
The tower as tall as my big toe.

Finished.

He looks up for a consent of approval.

Thumbs up.

He makes his way to the next job.
