Cracked-Dry

By: ECole789


It came from beyond

the realm of sky

pawing at the soil

barren, cracked-dry

                ·

Sunless 'sphere yonder:

ocean-blue abounds,

and so too

its coat

of the same hue,

dappled soft white

of blue sky's clouds

                ·

                Of fleeting absence

                a pondering mind—

                diverted, ever-spanning

                oculi

                ·

Ferine and death-black:

Hooves of rolling thunder

assail the stillness

within the air;

the dust of decay

a-waste in horse tracks—

a lone mustang

races hard and heavy

along arid plains

                ·

the horse brought forth

from essence of sky

               solemn in snorts and neighs

still paws at the ground

barren, cracked-dry.
