Of Sand. To Sand...(Revised) Poem by elysabeth faslund

Of Sand. To Sand...(Revised)

Rating: 5.0


With sand, I changed the future, from
Sun-stiffened robes, sandals,
Testingly oasis beckoned...
Had it not been for the waters of seeing,
Breathing...

I would have drunk the vinegar that
Strangling day,
Hanging my head...
Sometimes down...
Sometimes up...
Remembering
The women
Below me...

On those shifting
Sands.
