Thermalization in an Extensive, Mountainous Landscape

Stronger winds, bigger debris
Outside the window. The storm
Is cotton-mouthed, spittle-flecked

At the corners of the clouds,
And swallowing hard, as if
Trying to gulp at the creek

Choked on tumbleweeds below.
Description, kittens. This storm
Is gasping for description.

Another tumbleweed, huge
Enough for a house to wear
Like a wig, bounces off rocks

And disintegrates. Straw fall.
All emptiness wants to sprawl.
