Premium Member New Home in the Southwest
A lean coyote chases a hare through heat of desert winds. His swift doe darts past my boots. They've managed to escape, this time. He'll lead the chase away another day. I pause to watch the side-winder as he considers a kangaroo rat, before moving on between two century plants to a rock ledge nearby. The tidy yellow rat continues eating seeds, gleaning moisture, never...

Naked Southwest
Beyond the Batumi city, i am endlessly unclothed A.m., rose, i ran out of my bed Hopped into a vile pleasure Naked and unbothered Being Naked, i started my morning with dancing and singing nursery rhymes. Moloch departed for battle, signs in my dreams Burning of written works and poems, Naked by my window In the ashes, dancing,...

Premium Member Southwest Colors In My Meditation
colors of the southwest parade into my meditation tonight turquoise clouds lead the parade, floating in Rubenesque puffy ways I feel beloved, at peace, they have brought hope and revitalization my breathing has changed, I am on autopilot, unaware of my awareness relaxing into the turquoise, welcoming sage advice of my spirit guides they feel as aware of me as...

South West Monsoon
From a distance, the incessant chant of monsoon from south west, sounds like an old witch practicing her craft, Turning the sleeping dark cloud to a wandering gale, On its arrival must the sun lose its seeming joy, As she roars as a warrior in great toil, And the blue sky covers it face with dark veil, To hide from the shame...

Southwest Landscapes
Five in the morning Orange and red glow in the east A new day is born A single rain drop Looks to be the final straw Now the flood begins Albuquerque view Volcanoes on the mesa Since the age of time Once green and growing Now brown and brittle and free A Tumbleweed's life With long floppy ears And kangaroo backleg kicks It roams the mesa Bone dry arroyo But when...

West By Southwest
ebb and flow oh mighty tide in the golden lunar light waves that whisper to the shore I'm always coming back for more no wasted hours, I spend with you my soul at peace when once I view I hear you call, I hear you call once again, I am enthralled free my mind, fill my days with solitude and warm sun rays my spirit...

Southwest of Sedona
Baked mountains encrusted with a kiss of many suns. Dry air moans on melted shards of desert rock. Blistered lips sealed tighter with the dryness of every swallow. Stifling parched steps yielding this sundered land of our ancestors footprints. Forever silenced whispers of discoveries not yet heard through cracked wisps of branched tumbleweeds. Blowing, touching, caught in the arms of an unforgiving cactus. Sentenced to look on as others tumble by, their destiny...
