Replying to a comment on:

Flood Land, East Kentucky (Free verse) by zodiac

Beneath the house, old bottles that the river brung, white horse's skull, some Yankee coins, a rusty bike. When Noah cut his hand on it I lay with him, my darling boy, in his room with the junk he'd found: the glass was medicine, the coins were for his eyes, all this from in the house, but it was not of us.

This demands several reads, awesome lines and a compelling story. I suck at accents and dialects, so I'll have to assume you've got it right, but that's not a difficult assumption to justify.
