Remember Me
REPTILE
the blood drenched earth sizzled reptile hot
Carcass remnant in disgarded time forgot
Desert sands unfurl a buried drifted secret
Bleached old bones lie in sun set silhouette
Memory will forget exactly where you are
Go round and around and never go too far
Reptilian footprints clawed in the soft sand
Never ever know where they may end, and
Hide inside your mind like a dreamt mirage
Rising in truth's false hope on horizon's visage
Burnt ochre sky snarls like a teased angry beast
Leaping fast overhead salivating for a feast
Desert storm splinters into hard edge blizzard
While time freezes instantly like a petrified shard
Sahara wind screams its viscious blurred attack
in a sharp horde of stabbing needles crack
On wrinkled faces with cactus heat pricked
Burnt scarred vision blurred of a torrent wrecked
Corpse lies in death without a sound cremated
Hot breath of life a soul on desert canvas separated.

The poem is on Doctors who were heroes to us in the time of Covid-19
How we observe and how we reflect.
The observations and reflections of a traveller in a foreign land.
The facades of a perfect home.
This peom is about a woman in my life, who is suppose to be there for me but is not.
