A woman steals a fistful of jewels that make her fingers bleed.
Another pulls the baby from the tummy
of another,
extracting her happy
with her sweaty fist.
an expedition on foot
through ancient cities while
another says goodbye
She watches and grabs the hair for the ponytail, her wrinkled fingers red. Her heart is in a hot air balloon
far away from
the light
that knew
the
dust.
