Desert Trek

Desert Trek

written by: Craig R Kirchner

 

Transcending trainees
venerate our trio,
awed by its regal mystery,
repressing new passions in arid nausea,
hiking duality trails with camels,
and bearded earthly kings,
conversing Bedouin, ethics, monogamy,
time journeys by association.

We sip kava, quietly laugh,
at this our evening entourage
and their youthful dialect.
Then a pause, gasps,
the black trail and night sky
brightens silver with the Star.
The Magus points west.
Myrrh is in the air.
