Robert Verdon, #133, In Xanadu …


falling sand 
turning turbines
like water

the sunny pleasure-dome with caves of ice
promised by desert eco-visionaries
all locusts and wild honey

captures me sometimes as I shoot overhead
in a dirty plane, terrified that their parsimony
will join that of the Overclass,

and leave us all shivering in a sunless sea.
