Rifts of purple yellow white
drench the landscape with rivulets
of lightning patterns setting ablaze
the dusty olive and spinnerfex grass.
Petaled church bells glut over the flinted edge
beckoning the dragging body through sand and needle bark,
face half buried amongst ochre and incense, to slip a fervent gaze at
everything
Chords, handles, grips, clips, tacks and-
I’m helium.
