Textual Frustration

Sandstorm

She walks colonial and monstrous,
cloaked in sandstorm and prophecy—
fallen men at her feet

who tried to weather the storm and pluck
cranial verbs from skeletal clouds whirling
around her Death’s head

like winged, almond scented plague—
embracing and breaking bodies
of knowledge

for Her amusement.
