[hometext] => Inspired by my time in the Middle East, had a very memorable night and I wanted to share it :)
[bodytext] => Cities like snapshots, frozen in time, Desert sands shifting, exhausting to climb The gold-rippled mounds, serving as hosts To some forgotten wanderer’s ghost. Smoke curls upwards, reaching toward The pinpricks of light, an unknown hand poured ‘Cross the indigo night Rising up out of sight. The cricket’s music, the undisturbed tune A melody timeless, winds ‘round the dunes. The drum’s pulsating beat, best known among Those aware of their beating heart’s song. The whispering gusts pierce cool desert air Scented with jasmine, they drift through the bare Rocky outcroppings and moon-painted sand Of this obscure and antique land.
