Whether you plow the earth
with a brush or a pen,
the way to grow
a successful crop
is not by amassing buyers,
but by faithfully
and methodically
planting seed after seed,
day after day,
month after month.
Whether it is one year
or one hundred
before a single soul
discovers your land,
it will not be littered
with the shreddings
of well-laid plans,
reports, or almanacs,
but magnificent crops,
as far as the eye can see.
