of an inland sea trying to come back
Bird squawkers, chattering, and still daring to fish.
Skeletal palms, black with dead fingers drooping,
along a gray abandoned beach.
Broken glass and broken dreams, the Salton Sea,
"For Sale" signs, and rotting docks
along a salt smelling stretch of once nice homes.
The colors of death prevail.
The stench of sea salt pervades.
Yet I am fascinated!
