Blistered, bedraggled, forlorn,
The spirit of exhaustion
Like walking through the desert
And not seeing a single buzzard
Not even a coyote for company
Lifting one foot from the sand
And then the other as if cement
Heat, thirst, locusts, sandstorms
When does the quiet come?
When will the cool oasis appear
That we might bathe and drink?
