I love
every ammonite[^2]
weeping
from the Portals of Creation,
169Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgW1TAlTqhm
the melancholy of meadows
levigating
the Steles of Dracaena[^3] resin,
169Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJyxavrakRt
the hoarfrost
sleeting
in the Dwell of Rustles.
You are
the Eternal Irbis
that breaches dunes
in my wrists,
the Desert Rose
that, caustic,
germinates its parched winds.
