centuries

ominous lines in the sky
preceded the moon

a bird builds it nest
in the thorns


it starts small
a little agave
patiently
it grows in the dry desert
till blooms high in the sky


still it shows me
so i can imagine
what it was like



how can a this land produce all these wonders
no water in sight
