Aerial Photograph: California Desert Sands | T. F. Rice

From the sky
evaporation ponds
dissolve into
prehistory
cave painting on
desert landscape
blues and whites
sewn-together shapes
so strange
against the orange and greys
of this artistry
this topography
lead-grey roads
curve round pond
panes of stained glass
clear and exact
nearby mesa rises
like a staircase
only from high
can man be seen
an editor
he is always
erasing and
redrawing
the art
already here
