DEATH VALLEY

On Easter we drove to the center of the earth:

In Death Valley God is the sun
And the sunlight shines in everything
Beaming through the sand
Sinking in the salt

In Death Valley there is a salty sky
Lick your maw - you will taste it
Wash the salt out your eyes
Too much and you will die

In Death Valley a sea has died
The salt fell away as it left for Heaven
The ghost of the water has remained
And its crashing waves are made of dust
