SAND DUNES INTO YOUR EYES


You stretch sand dunes 
Graining hot into your eyes
Do you also protrude a hunch 
on your back -
like a camel do
as you paw your feet, soft
in this sizzling Sahara.
How dry is the love
that are cursed by desert 
No new tears welter through my heart,
No new image smudge beauty into the eyes, but
A dry mirage 
Bounding across the horizon


Like a drooping eyebrow.
