Ever changing, always the same.
Earth-moon, otra planeta,
Atacama.
Volcanic sunsets on the freezing,
Windswept dunes.
Dusty tourists gazing,
Gasping "It's amazing,"
they can conjure no other adjectives
In this land of warped perspectives.
Crystalline lakes, Earth shakes,
Rocks sing, the water brings
Life, hard to find...
Bright pink flamingoes dancing
In the salt,
Desert fox posing
For the cameras,
We are imposing
In their land. No man's land.
Clamber on the bus, and back to
Our oasis, smiles on our faces.
The invading tourists in an
Unconquered, unchanging land and time.
Donde hay agua hay vida.
Aqui hay algo diferente.
Atacama.
