Country

Spliff-spliff-spliff-spliff-spliff-spliff-spliff-spliff-spliff-spliff-spliff-spliff

The little boat putters around the cozy harbour.

Bibble-bibble-bibble-bibble-bibble-bibble-bibble-bibble-bibble-bibble-bibble

The tractor trickles around the farm, dragging its gentle plough through the soil.

Ftuff-ftuff-ftuff-ftuff-ftuff-ftuff-ftuff-ftuff-ftuff-ftuff-ftuff-ftuff-ftuff-ftuff-ftuff

The pick up truck plunks down the dirt road on bouncy treads.

Didder-didder-didder-didder-didder-didder-didder-didder-didder-didder-didder-didder

The propeller plane coasts down the runway, ready for takeoff.

Chih-chih-chih-chih-chih-chih-chih-chih-chih-chih-chih-chih-chih-chih-chih-chih

The farmer’s daughter scuffles down her lonely hardwood hallway

Oob-dz-oob-dz-oob-dz-oob-dz-oob-dz-oob-dz-oob-dz-oob-dz-oob-dz-oob-dz

The boyfriend smokes to underground trance through bulky headphones and stares at the wheat.

Hhhh-hhhhh-hhhhh-hhhhh-hhhhh-hhhhh-hhhhh-hhhhh-hhhhh-hhhhh-hhhhh-hhhhh

The air sits, then shifts, then sits again, lightly brushing things, then ducking away; always shifting but staying the same.
