Listen to poem:
Cactuses
Cactuses
Of a fringed existence upon a solitary majestic beholden expanse,
Saguaro forest brims an Arizonan desert thirty deep in noble stance,
1000 foot profound ampleness their protrusive inward succulence,
E'er so oft a filtered beauty blossoms unscathed of shielded intense,
Thirty growing crowns shadow a summit as a mauve sun pretense,
Night strips down and starry-eyed cacti glamorize a lunar entrance.
