They walk on the grass

And their feet feel the living.

A list of objects and compound objects:

Twenty nine trophys on a shelf. 

A carrot grater, rusty. 

A marble pillar. 

A letter from the state courthouse. 

A key fragment that broke off in the lock.

A key fragment that broke off in the hand. 

Fallow ground. 

A porcelain horse. 

A spherical magnet. 

A plate of beans. 

Two-hundred forty-four, but who's counting?
