Analysis of Wyoming



Mountain ranges peak
But I am higher
Brown carved land
Unfolded again and again
Beaneath me
Vast space for stretching
Lots of room for breathing
Few shadows throw
Releasing cool tension
Blue lakes dapple - like
puddles sprung from tears
Air hot and dry
My skin baked
But I don't mind
This view over Wyoming
