Dried milkweed pods, split open and gone silver-gray, press up against the grille of an old tractor here, a pairing that says as much about neglect as about the machine itself. Farm equipment like this was built to be worked hard and then left in a field edge or behind a shed once a newer model arrived, and rust tends to settle into the grille and hood first, where weather and dew collect. The milkweed, which typically takes over fallow ground and fencerows, has grown up around the iron as if reclaiming it. Look closely at the pods and the pitted metal together to see how the two have aged side by side.
