Into The Dunes
run
Into the dunes I run
Trailed by 5 dark blotches into an unending sand
With an unrelenting sun
irradiating the landscape till it dances
My tongue lies dumb in my mouth
Fat and useless
If words could help me now I'd only muster a single string of incoherence
Hearing finally escapes me
Tiny little jabs push at my back like little lines that shove me forward and nearly drop me to my knees
I find that a number of new little holes litter my chest
Mini inverted craters - or volcanoes
They are bursting with red hot lava
The ground falls from my feet?
Slowly spinning, I see the horizon shift from its usual place to -
entirely vertical
The sand slams my skull
I have no choice but to watch the sky
