Near golden sunsets

Pillowed by cold folds of clammy mud
and blanketed with icy rain drops
fallen from tempest laden skies,
She lay shivering along the roadside
waiting for her night to pass.

Praying to silent gods between shivers
And convulsing hungered shudders,
Desperation transfigured in sobbing pleas
She turns her bruised face to the clouds
Seeking direction, reason, truth.

You can't wake a person who is pretending to be asleep. -- Navajo Proverb
