it's a poem about a person wwalking in the desert and how the weather changes on him.
I am walking in the desert
It is very cold
Thank God the warm round sun is out
As I press on through this desert
It is very very hot
The sun has now been turned into my enemy
I feel that I have been in this place before
It feels like I have been going in circles
In the distance I see an animal
The vultures are circling around the dead carcass
Throughout out the day I get dizzy
It feels like I am circling in my head
A couple of hours go buy and it is early in the night
I see in the distance a perfect shape of a pond
But as I get closer I see it is only a mirage
The night falls and I have the moon to keep me cool
But in an instant of a couple of hours it gets very cold
The moon has been my enemy
It feels like I need the sun
I am walking in the desert.
