SAHARA
I roamed the world;
A land more barren,
love more pure,
hate more bitter than
your hate, I could not find.

Sahara, I am back;
sea-water on my face,
mirages in my mind,
(conjuring visions,
chasing dreams,
catching whispers of sun-
gold hair); and on my lips,
two lines of verse - -
song without echo.

Disenchanted, I am back;
love is words devoid
of love. Defeated, I am back;
in the fight my sword was
forged from feeling.

I am back,
anchor in the sand,
face washed with dew.
I hear you
whisper.: “My son! My son!
Are you back?” - - Yes, Mother,
back - - a child
of endless grief,
bird that lost its nest.

to woo your night
(its web of mystery);
Your moon my neighbour,
