Castroville, CA or The Artichoke Center of the World

Produce truckers eating lunch at the wheel
And the pickers huddled behind a stack of tires
Obscured in their three o’clock cervezas.

A man small enough to be a jockey
Tries to sell me mota weed
I ask him the best place to buy a platter of shellfish.
