OASIS
Hot dry desert sand.
One hill the same as
the next one – and then
the other side of this one.
On and on. There better be
an oasis on the other side
of one of these hills of sand
or in the midst of all of this.
Water, shade, rest,
a tree, some fruit ….
There better be, but
what if there isn’t?
