Have you ever been witness
to a burst of the wind
laden of leaves, while stirring the dust?
It will gather itself,
then collide from within,
swallow up air,
filling its lungs...
becoming a sphere
that stretches its limbs
A sudden explosion
walking over the earth
taking the form,
of a sand-colored worm
rising and falling,
in a reptile's intrusion,
finding surprise,
when it loses its breath,
and falls to earth,
confused in its death
while leaving behind
only muted destruction
