giant colorful fish from the turquoise southwestern lakes
began to stack themselves like happy golden brown pancakes
Lilly decided to join them to say hello, her hair floating like flakes.

you should come down to florida
this time of the year.
i miss you so much,
baby, i wish you were here
so i could drown you
in the rain,
the ocean,
and my tears.
i'm in paradise,
and you got what you prayed for
last year in the southwestern hemisphere.
"The Ship of State"
On Ship! New billows sweep thee out
Seaward. What wilt thou? Hold the port, be stout

Can ill sustain
The fierce, and ever fiercer main;

~*~
warm winds through the Mesquite Trees
the sweet smell of sage lingers in the breeze
~*~
the desert Sun climbs past invisible clouds
the burning sky melts the misty wet shroud
~*~
the mercury is high but the air is dry
somewhere under the tangerine sky
life in Arizona
