Episode 11: Season Two Prologue
September 10, 2020O Appalachia:
mother and maw
that births and devours us,
roots sunk deep and winding as
gnarled hands clasped in prayer,
hold us fast and give us foundation.
O knotted cage and vine wrought chains
O feast of hills and green,
that which feeds our hearts
but often starves our blood:
Hear us now.
