Wendell Berry Poem

This poem is very different from any I have ever read. By that I am talking about the way it is set up. The punctuation is everywhere. There are periods at the beginning, middle, and end of some of the lines. This makes me want to hear how Wendell Berry would read it. I would like to hear how he uses the periods and how he goes from line to line. When I went to see Patrica Smith read her poems it was a world of difference between when I read it in my head and when she read it aloud to everybody. I think there would be a world of dirrerence in this poem as well.
