He walked the fields
the whispering ears of corn
caused him to shiver
tendrils of the melon
entwined his ankles
in an attempt to pull him down
ripe melons turned into heads
gruesomely lopped off
and rolling on the plantation floor
The sights he saw
made him break out in a cold sweat
his feet rooted to the ground too heavy to move
