The desert curled its warm tongue
And called my name
A whisper deep into the night
Opening out upon the blistering sands
Her heart lay sticky and bleeding.
The Indian stayed his steed
His throat was dry and raspy
Casting medicine to the wind
Answering in wolf-call whispers
…longing
So I went his calling wandering way
With feathers in my hair.
We rode that day,
Into the night
The Indian and I.
He did not smile
Weathered away in sandstone faces
His, Bronzed and matted
With appraising eyes
Seeking the broken trail
Tracking the Great Spirit’s shadow
Fluttering in the Devils dust.
