Mystery of the Moving Rocks

[mnaz]

I found moving rocks on a dry lake.
Rocks that moved in the past.
They had smudged trails.

Maybe I saw them in a dream.
I met Ed Abbey's ghost sitting on a rock.
It had a smudged trail behind.

No, they were real.
Scientists obsessed over them.
No one had ever seen them move.

Silly obsession.
It was just Abbey's ghost.
Moving his furniture.

Thanks Truck. He is definitely missed.

You have such unique imagery in your poetry. I love this, Mark!

I should read some Edward Abbey books. I’ve never read him. I was thinking at first you meant Edward Albee (whose plays I love), but no!! I was totally wrong, of course.

Desert Solitaire, definitely recommended. (Though honestly, he was kind of a jerk.)
