This isn't Idaho.
White desert with western bluffs:
this is New Mexico,
the Alamogordo plain north of White Sands,
not far from the badlands.
Look:
across the street,
a sprawling bauxite factory.
Someone ladles vegetables onto your paper plate,
but you ignore them,
thinking,
it's not that long a drive from here.
