If thee hast liveth in the great mojave desert as thy humble servant hast.
Then, thou knowest, of which I speak.

Poems by Juan Olivarez : 814 / 1315
One more time, before I die
One more time before I die,
I'd like to walk with you.
To gaze up at your clear blue sky,
Like something fresh and new.
One more time before I die,
To behold your snow capped peaks.
To see the ravens as they fly,
With sidewinders in their beaks.
One more time before I die,
I'd walk your burning sands.
To hear the wind and to reply,
Oh that would be so grand.
One more time before I die,
I'd spend a night with you.
To hear coyotes when they cry,
That's what I'd like to do.
