Sometimes my eyes Are the skies Of the desert Dry as the lies That they told us Sandy brown On the ground Parched particles Pointy patches Of cactuses Insects and mole rats Little lizards that run fast And you may ask Where is the metaphor Well, everything is a Metaphor for everything else

The Desert Metaphor
Sometimes my eyes Are the skies Of the desert Dry as the lies That they told us Sandy brown On the ground Parched particles Pointy patches Of cactuses Insects and mole rats Little lizards that run fast And you may ask Where is the metaphor Well, everything is a Metaphor for everything else
I know it should be cacti for the plural but cactuses works better.
