Land vs Water in El Vado Dam

Tara Marshall-Tierney

Pale vastness
Dry Cracked
Wet muddy
Warm dust
Seeking the water
Toes becoming mud
Huge expanse
Stomach and lungs filling with bigness
Carp teasing with playful glimpses moving the stillness revealing life in apparent desolation

Sparkles versus trembles
Constant movement versus solid dryness
Smooth versus crumbling
Reflecting versus baking
Soaking versus dusting
Flat versus rambling
In versus on
