Red rock.

The day turns to night,
hotness turns to coldness,
you feel the red sand between your toes.
Night turns to day,
coldness turns to hotness.
The frilled-neck lizards appear out of the bloom,
sunbathing under the smouldering sun.
The heat, heavy and hot until the glimmering sun melts away…
Lizards scuttle back to their burrow.
