I watch
as,
by months and years,
explosions and consolations,
you unfurl away from me,
flowing by
in unequal fractions
and matching halves,
entangled and entwined,
to be lofted up by the wind
or embraced by gravity.
Here,
my body,
the silent barren dunes,
my heart,
the fallow winter fields,
a nascent memory of summer
buried deep.

the West (home)
Give me the wide wild spaces
and sapphire-high skies,
the inspiring ascensions
of million-years dust,
beyond where
gargantuan creatures of pure imagination
coalesce
in curls and wisps,
and lyrical-voiced gusts
sweep down the slopes
bringing the songs
that strengthen
this interstitial awareness.
Over distances
Onward,
ever onward
we race
over the vast illuminated distances
of Heavens on earth,
echoing across boundaries of time
and past lives lived now,
a coming that
mirrors the passage
of Brilliance overhead,
traveling the slow outward curvature
to reunite on new topographies,
bounded only
by the colors
that spell love.
