Hills

By Arun Kolatkar

Hills
demons
sand blasted shoulders
bladed with shale
demons
hills
cactus thrust
up through ribs of rock
hills
demons
knee quartz
limestone loins
demons
hills
cactus fang
in sky meat
hills
demons
vertebrated
with rock cut steps
demons
hills
sun stroked
thighs of sand stone
hills
demons
pelvic granite
fallen archways
demons.
