earth note 563


this may look like a debate
but it's not
my skin has that uncompromising
ancient look to it
we found water just past
those western arches
the ones the tourists
like to photograph
we tried hiding there
but they're damn persistent
you shoulda seen the entry gate
this morning
cars backed up a half-mile
but at least they're getting better
at cleaning up their garbage
on the way out

step lightly & peace be with you
