Ghosts in the desert
In the desert, dark, dry, and cold with fear; there lives a presence that breathes down your neck.

Buildings stand still and tall, with skeletal shadows reaching out across sand.

In the quiet of the witching hour life walks through unaware of how it is in the past.

In the present we long for what is now gone; wanting to understand how it became a Ghost in the Desert.
