Tuning

In this vision,

the antelopes are tuned

into existence,

huge waves of them

rolling in and out of

atmospheric haze,

keenly aware of their

sharp pounding against the ground

in the rolling rhythm of multitude

and the strong smell of each other

and the heat and dust

and the surging imperative importance

of life, this now 

in which they run.
