Desert surrounds me
the only stream from siblings
urinating in the sand
flowing into the river
then to a clear lake of ancient waters
silent in hollowed canyons underground
where the ancestors wait in gold caverns
sending out a snake and a golden panther
to guide me up through the roots of an evergreen
soaring with the eagle
to the sky to drink the sunshine
and look beyond the moon
where Sirius, the brightest star shines
and to finally understand why
the wolf howls at the moon.
