Badlands Loop
4 July 2014, South Dakota Badlands
Illustrating superposition
the Loop isn't a loop at all
it's pull-out punctuated pavement
with guardhouses at either end
Ideals form at the base
Expectations settle on top
but rarely does one trade in
the currency of the other
Headlights reveal our plan
as a two-dimensional cutout
Sedimentary chipboard
tacked to the prairie floor
