The Drought (A Prayer For Rain)
- 9 x 6 in
- Ashley Grubb
""The Drought"" is inspired by these lines from ""The Promise"": The land is dependent not only on whatever thin trickle of water decides to fall, but also on whatever shred of stubborn hope remains within the farmer to keep it, and his dream, from dying.

But this grizzled islander's hopes will not yield [...]
leaving this oasis to wither and die with him"
