Tanka v
Drifting desert sands
Forming dunes with sculpting air
Circles nomad's tent
Castles move to relinquish
Nomad strengthens tent ropes firm
Tanka vi
Camping under stars
Unsure steps illuminate
Future path discerned
Burrow deep below lost sands
Blackened oils flame futures fate
Tanka vii
Dust storm gathers fast
Suffocating oil slick wells
Nations brandish guns
Nomad's tent resisted dunes
Real foundations strength revealed
