Does the poem work?

What is signified by “work?” Heavy lifting? Cerebral shenanigans?


The meal offered (chili flakes added to mussel broth) – that worked. Add thanks to yum.

  1. Potlatch

    "Dunno how much more it's gonna last"
    as the potter bends the clay down
    to the last and lovely curve
    We watched as bullets were packed
    into the muskets and boots were shined
    as if they would not fold
    no cups of cold water in the fields
    just dreams of that last damp night
    picking the earth for potatoes
    and a flower for the maidens
    making bowls to take back home
