caressed
by mist
drenched
with dew drop 
rain
drop and sun drop 
these
lesser attractions
in
the great plains
the
‘Maha Eliya’
of
kuru-ali legend
and
the grotesque footprints
of
and elephant-killer
and
colonial extractor
kicking our sensibilities                                                                    
watch
and wilt
flower
and fade
color
and discolor
as
the ancients did
as
we do now
and
perhaps as others will.
