Love Bathed in Red Tea'd Skies

~~~

Offering bits of life to the nearly

Dead, a love bathed in red tea-d skies

An office of tremendous importance

Deserts on foot battling heat and soul’s thirst

Oasis’s flange- d palms and dates wave in dusk

Now, silhouetted people-d forms masked grey

Neither, black or white, journey’s midpoint

Just an indeterminate nation state

A-waiting, Love’s merciful tenderness
