Mask of Sand by Ariel Riveros

It may be with you

your natural life

term. City arrival

not determined

Fall an analog pillar.

Be invisible to eyes

bar your own seeable -

and mask of sand 

have haviour behaviour 

like

saving crosswind

to see sight.

It arrives and leaves out

of description.

You are heard 

sounding like 

stung faced 

gained grain.

You're eyes are

covered like 

book cloth.

We read 

imperfectly

counter-cartograph-centric

to the map of a

mercenary science. 

X<-- you're here.

No. I'm here. No.

Here. I can't fit

feet on ink. 

If you must scream

and throw your hands

On the ink where I stand

then form me. 

Move the molecule, 

trade me the visitant

who cast sand masks

flecked fluvial 

littoral paper bark.

devil rides 

the paradox back 

The smaller the 

pearl the 

greater the 

desert weighs.
