Desert Ends

Trailing in the desert,
Tail tucked 'neath my feet,
I wander alone,
In the dust, in the heat
The cacti my footstools,
A shadow, a treat.

No rest for my body,
Won't rescind, won't retreat,
Create for me sudden,
A woman entreats,
"Lend hands to my burden,
And you may suckle my teat"

I don't stop for any,
My mind is at ease,
I go where I wished,
I'll do what I please.
