I am the secret that cannot be solved without living in it,
Even if there aren't many people who are unaware of me,

There's nothing "just" about August
--not in Southern AZ.
Monsoon busts--no more dust.
Desert turns into a sea of green.
Happy hour's afternoon showers.

a hand in weaving birth;
aware from Lachesis
that life is a wonder....
