Desert pullout 2

The desert pullout is a dusty patch of gravel where I once pulled over to watch a sunset bleed into the horizon. The silence was so complete I could hear my own heartbeat. A lizard darted under a dry bush, and the faint scent of creosote hung in the cooling air. It felt like standing on the edge of the world.
