the puffed
straw stuffed chests
of the older bogles
strained
through their sackcloth clothes
the smallest scarecrow
banished
to the barren lands
face bevelled
by desert winds
his one leg
frayed
into many
his outstretcehd
arms
bent in
the smallest scarecrow
the talk
of arable lands
"have you heard?"
"he walks!"
"no crows?"
"no crops?"

Lovely lines, love your poem! Thank you so much for complementing my image with your words!
lovely :)
Fine spin on the scarecrow
would expect no less from cat, than a poem beautiful, meaningful and in every aspect, unique. Multiple levels of perception and understanding, original simile, emotion, a hidden hero, sounds and images. Just awesome.
love it.
Exemplary, perfect, distinctive.
