Strata
deliberate layering
of earthen tones sediment
deposited across time
and oceans
oceans and time
oceans of time
saline dictates cadences
preserving what should be forgotten.
The literature for treatments
says the medicine is derived from salt.
This landscaped hell,
sand trapped as rock.
Water has forsaken this place
wind claims
few refugees
Purgatory of all things.
