I stopped by the roadside
To roam the silken sky
Prairie hawk and starling
Leering down at me
Razor wire glinting in blank Sun
Bombilating Life
With the sound of Death
Transformed
![Shadows Spill like Blood into the Hot White Sand Shadow Spills like Blood into the Hot White Sand]()
Shadow of your splayed soul
Spilled and spread like blood
In the bleached, rippled sands
![Last Flare of Afternoon Last Flare of Afternoon]()
And so in a splash of Amber Glow
Your Twilight arrived too soon-
The last Flare of afternoon
