When the sky changes, the heart opens up And out of cliffs boulders hang on prudently Like the skin between your fingers The rain becomes the air. Soon The desert is trumpeting its flowers From all its highest fingers (Were they ever really there?) Soon enough the earth becomes bare And what's left hides in caves.   What need do I have for flesh? Simply the desire to be cloudy.

Desert dream #29
When the sky changes, the heart opens up And out of cliffs boulders hang on prudently Like the skin between your fingers The rain becomes the air. Soon The desert is trumpeting its flowers From all its highest fingers (Were they ever really there?) Soon enough the earth becomes bare And what's left hides in caves.   What need do I have for flesh? Simply the desire to be cloudy.
