This grass is tired, and chuffed at the thought

of trying to become wheat;

looks down at its grassy form

and cannot imagine what it is

to grow into feed.

Thinks: but I am what I am,

since conception, since the seed,

even though I am still only the grass

queuing impatiently in the field,

I am wheat, I am wheat, I am wheat.
