The captain turned to his first mate
A statue made of boards found next to the barn
No one was sure who even built the barn but we bought it
In 1972 using some of grandmas money
They dug up the hillside to build a house
The house was a modern design
With a deck surrounding the entire top floor
When they bulldozed they found a stone bowl and pestle
And a large flat rock
And they found some bones
The bones we reburied
And wondered about forgiveness
(Not really)
