North 33 degrees 42 minutes 29.80 seconds
West 111 degrees 54 minutes 2.81 seconds
perched in ironwoods
night birds report their chirp verse
breaking the quiet
-
a veil of clouds shrouds
the moon with iridescent
prismatic black pearl
-
dry spring zephyrs move
through the palo verdes low
moon, mars, jupiter
-
the penny on my
roof reflects the light of moon
like a silver dime
-
orion exits
until it swings back eastward
in autumn’s advent
-
above the foothills
an egg shaped moon sinks away
down in the cool night
-
tusk moon over buttes
an effulgence of silk clouds
a scream of quiet
-
rain clouds clear for a
blood orange moon waning over
the dark desert hills
-
ironwood and the
saguaro silhouetted
against a thin cloud
-
a great owl in the
middle of the road takes flight
from my car headlights
-
no venus no moon
no trees moving in the wind
quiet still as stars
-
two red tailed hawks hunt
rabbits on the house drive way
in the early day
-
like a perfect chalk
circle around the full moon
marks approaching rain
-
earth in spring pushes
insects out from the cool sand
and stones in the wash
-
walls of igneous
canyons carved in the desert
sediment and clay
-
hawk lands on highway
lamp post this afternoon with
out secret service
-
the advent of Spring
animals flowers and mice
you can hear the owls
-
meteor flicks quick
like a quantum particle
inside a vacuum
-
in the 3am
the push and pull of the winds
stars hit peak at dawn
-
moon holding Earth-shine
low over the dark hillside
a pristine spring night
-
the owl ghost star and
jupiter set west mars high
and faint above town
-
moon sets west now red
as mars 3am hour
of the gods and stars
-
collapse on your lap
moon sets west like blood in dirt
dream alert tonight
-
moon slips behind the
black clouds with mars and airplane
time to go back in
-
geometrical
cosmic tag the whole night sky
a big line drawing
-
leaving a giant
wriggling worm a sky glow worm
winds over the trail
-
aphids appear to
circumnavigate the edge
of a candle’s glass
-
loving the light two
aphids the color of lime
battle the light breeze
-
dance on the surface
of a smartphone's glare and do
a little boogie
-
on the roof in the
hour of god mars trucks west
pulls the milky way
-
the aphids are now
wearing parkas because it
is so god damn cold
-
skies open up the
heavens there is a gentle
breeze blowing tonight
-
collective light from
a billion years hits the back
of our open eyes
-
there was a time to
remember lean back the head
and dream of the day
-
a meteor drops
answering brilliant in the
east over the hills
-
dark new moon tonight
dipper mars jupiter hang
out now a slight breeze
-
the winds blow through the
dark mighty evening and now
I must go to sleep
-
weird when you start to
shine a flashlight everywhere
the cool wind will cease
-
a gem in my beak
from the rubble you leave has
planted a new day
-
moonlight 3am
just me and the nature noise
across the desert
-
jupiter sails west
moon saturn mars lifting east
sacred silent night
-
a world without the
animal is a coffin
of sirens screaming
-
full passover moon
next jupiter to the east
then falling star west
-
rich scent of mesquite
sage and acacia tree
Ho'hokam grass too
-
indigenous trees
grow upside down serpent holds
the moon in its mouth
-
wild fires burn in the
north woods the invincible
trickster of fury
-
Dali Lama is
not here he's over the hill
crimson crescent moon
-
should be nice tonight
the moon glow grows chasing west
jupiter north west
-
in the last two nights
you could see the fingers of
the old milky way
-
slow red moon sets west
May wild flowers bring June wild
fires burn for months
-
couldn't sleep much last
night with out the power this
morning I woke up
-
mars skates over the
city lights glow dipper dive
bombs in the dark west
-
in the sandwich of
the evening a gun metal
sky mars moon sets west
-
skeleton light years
3 o'god in the morning
bloody stained half moon
-
all night dreaming of
bright angels in the millions
ascending my spine
-
into the heaven
of my brain in the morning
the sun wakes me up
-
the sun the big sun
waiting Memorial Day
phoenix bright hot light
-
homeless head for Flag
rich head for San Diego
the rest of us sleep
-
moon waxes gibbous
courting mars stage south south west
in gun metal sky
-
when the night birds sing
earlier some ants battled
in the cool kitchen
-
driving all life in
a circadian rhythm
there is no escape
-
there was a reason
he wore a blood stained toga
Komodo dragon
-
mars hovers over
a wolf spider on flagstone
wind stirs desert dirt
-
moon hangs in cobweb
clouds over Superstitions
a cream glow smearing
-
2 am breezes
all wild life shrugs heavens clouds
hearts silence rises
-
her orchestra is
leaving nothing but muses
of eternity
-
womb moon in space-time
now free in cloudless night sky
tiny planes blink out
-
moon rising through strands
of clouds breaking through the east
crescent moon moves low
-
cassiopeia
low in the north sky tonight
jupiter moon dusk
-
saturn mars south by
south west vega above my
head a shooting star
-
moon saturn south now
over ghost clouds of satin
ironwood shadows
-
morning cool breezes
birds chirp doves coo airplanes land
air brakes squeak gate slams
-
3am hour
moon, stars, trees, helicopter
cool, calm and silent
-
still no animals
eating each other alive
no planes in the sky
-
no helicopters
no sirens no distant groan
of last call traffic
-
the owl drops from a
canopy of cottonwoods
claws a bird to death
-
blood orange moon sinks
west taking jupiter out
mars south with saturn
-
jupiter rising
from the east a full flower
blue moon and saturn
-
mind tagged with song of
memory quiet falls from
deep space the heart beats
-
june new moon blue sky
fresh heat people meet light air
wind in hair bare feet
-
walking talking in
to the mist of the threshold
of the summer time
-
lightning flies midnight
bird songs saguaro blooms doves
loom clouds plume from north
-
half moon heading west
jupiter near mid summit
in a soup of billions
-
dark matter and light
from times before earth began
above the desert
-
breezy cool evening
the invisible invites
through the sigh song trees
-
the saguaro blooms
tuning forks stand food for doves
eons of monsoons
-
in the lightning blasts
the saguaro boils to death
leaving long glass roots
-
last days of may mars
rises east chases saturn
chases jupiter
-
soon to be june with
her blue white skies and damning
hell hot heat hits streets
-
look east mars rises
then saturn jupiter near
moon and arcturus
