Desert roars erase
morning fog,
coffee setting in.
Last night's
howling leftovers:
desert roars erasing
my dreams etch-a-sketch
red-framed:
my coffee sets in.
Struggling
back to origins,
desert roars erasing
memories of children,
hopscotch, my
coffee brewing
strength
even as
desert roars erase
and unsettle me.
