A place...
Between the curves
that frame our vistas...
Ancient monolithic cradle,
an ageless memory
ever present in every recollection
had by myself, my kin and neighbor...
However, this terrain
is heavily weighted by the 'Dry'
and, unfortunately, extreme heat
and scarcity of food are
the only kindnesses extended to the travelers
that have become trapped
within these shifting dunes,
chasing mirages...
Always in pursuit of sustainment
and something, which,
vaguely resembles comfort...
Lost in a vastness of arid and torrid sands
...where there's no one around,
...except the sun on the ground,
And, at night, even the sun seeks out
a place to hide....
