Shallow Excavations  

a poem by Rajiv Lather
 
Amidst ashy mists, with
sporadic bursts of fused fervor,
umbilical cords
trickle down formative slopes
spinning persistent turbans
on the landscape.

Where the rocks rain,
three-dimensional murals
get encrusted by the fourth -
terracotta artifacts
for archaeologists to unearth.
