Camel Memories

Viewing these camels in the Colorado desert of California, my mind raced across the globe to the Ogaden desert of eastern Ethiopia and Somalia. How are people doing right now? Is Muhtar enjoying camel’s milk today? Is camel on the menu at that little cafe in Gode town?

a flood of memories, induced
by art and open air and
the power of landscape
that could not be held
back, and i am grateful
