escape route
north to dreams
but dreams do not
await me
escape to the east
or to the west
or south to just about
goddamn anywhere
but here,
here among the flies
and reptiles
cold and bone
in slow-dead desert
this night is vile,
this night is unforgiving,
this night brings
so much more than
just its darkness...
I am warp,
I am unsteady
amid years of sand
and years of night
with nowhere else to go
but here
