The Onion Man

I am the Onion Man
God placed me in the ground
to be born half buried,
half from the ground

I am the Onion Man
I can say my own name now
because it’s Fall
with Winter close at hand.

Harvest time
the moon begs me to stand
so I push hard to find my feet,
I push hard to breathe again.

This is my row
My soil, my ripe hands
So watch me walk
as I haunt this promised land.
