The Smelting Pot

This desertscape dotted with feathers.
What need?  I haven’t a need
for umbilical utensils utterly useless 
on a Sanskrit road
long as the maiden’s Genghis apron
white as white gypsum in Alamogordo, 
New Mexico.  
Here you find blossoming curry spattered across 
an ancient horizon 
lulled by the dunes rattling the baritone basin,
and in America, in this most united of 
Apache - Comanche - Navajo 
estates, we gather nations through nuclear 
hinges obtusely obliterated at White Sands National.
