Sunrise On Uyuni

Arise, Inti orb
And paint my world,
Banish the turquoise twilight of dawn,
Highlight Earth curves,
I stand in awe, young yet infinite
As a new day is born.

I walk by the coloured lake,
This mighty dreamscape, conjured
In the minds of insane men,
And unfurled
In the high places of the world.

You can touch the horizon,
Leap from ash stained volcanoes,
See where the end of the plain goes
Gaze into pits, burned by the mud
They spew.
See the things that once
Every man knew.

And yet not find words.
