206.8 Miles in the Sonoran Desert

Time flows through the grass lands
Languid, sensual, relentless, indifferent
The bloom in hues whose brilliance
Matched only by the skeletal silhouette of fading manzanita in their twilight.
The yucca prods and pricks, resilient;
And the sand moves through the washes
As it has always done,
Eternal.
