Pyramid Lake

I was already vulnerable
When I pulled into a turnout
High above Pyramid Lake
To let a leadfoot go by--
I was already weak
With pink sundown in my eyes
Looking over the sage crest
To soft tracts of light wind
Feathering the last sunlight,
A loose ribbon of black freightbirds
Settling for the night
Offshore
