the sun beats down
on the workers that harvest
the fruit from the trees
the berries from their bushes
the lettuce that we eat
I watch from my brother's car
air-conditioned, running fine
and I think about how different
their lives are from mine
forgive me
I'm not responsible
for the advantage of the birth
I respect you
I admire you
you who work the earth
