The Unknown Gobi

" The Unknown Gobi "

by Suzán Jiván

The unknown Gobi
once housed
monks now
only ghosts

leading loaded
camels over
plateaus
pressing passed
water made salty

glittering
with vermilion
for visitors
while motioning
to sit

gesturing toward
clinging cliff
sparrows'
mud-pelletted
colonies of nests...
