A kind of resort
“The seldom-traveled dirt road by their door
is where, good days, the Scutzes take their ease.
It serves as a living room, garage, pissoir
as well as barnyard. Hens scratch and rabbits doze
under cars jacked up on stumps of trees.’’
From the ‘‘Leisure’’ section of “Saga,’’ by Maxine Kumin (1925-14), a Pulitzer Prize-pwinning poet who from 1976 until her death lived with her she husband lived on a farm in Warner, N.H., where they bred Arabian and quarter horses.
