Rows of corn husks were stacked in the kitchen. Kids circled the dinner table waiting for the end of the harvest. Miles of notes were written on scrapped paper bags. Matches and knives. Thesis papers and bottles of scotch. The farmers stand at the front of the house and wait for the sun to lower behind the horizon. They ring a triangle. Family is ready for the ritual. With the sun down the family is free to speak. Plans are being made as the mothers tend to the toddlers. The teenagers are seen going to the barn to bring the farmers what he needs to begin the ritual.
