FISSURE: A Life Between Cultures

BECOMING NEW MEXICO

In the dark it could be anywhere.

Then darkness lifts

 

Slowly

 

And it is 

Becoming New Mexico.

 

Dim light rises

Above juniper-freckled mesas

Curved rocks the red of humans

Colors deepen in the damp and dawn light.

 

The day becomes New Mexico.
