    under the desert lies a secret swarm,
    like the veins of mid eastern women-
    draped and naked;

    ants fornicating under every ripple, humming sunburn
    the throbbing blood of my skin, filtered in white drops

    thirst for the hunt

    upon an evening, it all came down,
    and in the morning there was nothing

    I like the unique images. Particularly the mideastern women. But the ending could use some punch. You got a bit lazy there.

    We all go through periods of hating our work. Don't let that stop you. This piece has its merits.
