Salty Solitude
Footprints in a ribbon’s stream
Beads upon a string
Minute leaves upon a stem
They were made
By a pachyderm
Lifeless land this salt plain
Giant evaporation pans
Leaving just salt
Where once sea
Now desert
Shimmers in reflected heat
Nothing but the footprints
Alone in the heat
Nomadic outcast
In a land
Of sporadic water
Bounding the land in green
What are you thinking?
