Disking Deep
I have just learned that Barbra has been donating all proceeds from Disking Deep to the Katrina Reconstruction Fund for the working team going from Santa Ynez Presbyterian Church. This team is dedicated to helping in Barbra’s home town of Gulfport, Mississippi and the Gulfcoast for the next three to five years.
To support Barbra in this effort, FootHills Publishing will start contributing a third of any future book sales of Disking Deep to the same fund. Disking Deep will shortly be going into a second printing.

From the book:
Disking Deep
At winter's end
the earth lays cold
glazed with frost
a tangle of dried weeds,
stubble, rotting roots, rock.
Day after day
the plow rotates metal blades
slices skin, splits muscles
shatters bones
heaves to the surface
hidden blood, bitter springs.
Disking deep
until rough fresh order
rests,
the earth
broken open
ready for seed.
