In the mighty desert
Old times loom.
Layers of crushed history
Pressed by ancient rain
By ash and mud
Bones and sand.
Carved craters
Cleaved by flaming travelers
Hurling from
Beyond the sun.
Pressed down eras
Sandwiched by eternity
And painted
In primordial
Deposits:
Iron
Copper
Lime.

Thank you! Yes, the realities of time and history of this planet (let alone the universe, which is — literally — beyond my perception) are just awe-inspiring.
