Rock

some—
see but a fallen angel
a mistake
broken from the flesh of a cliffside
a peril potential to passers unfortunate—
onward traverse these o’er beaten paths

others—
feel the result of Nature’s chisel
as an abstract
or a weather’d ancient ruin
or any infinites
of provokers of imagination—
recess these with bottl’d water and cameras
and cerebral conversation

so many steps
so many miles
a mature pulse
and calories burn’d

but the sweat
and heave of breath
be ignor’d
by destination’s view

within these ramparts
converse the spirits
of fortress life
of defenders
of battles won to preserve that life
of battles lost and lives lost

this magical day
decipher’d their stories
into song across the sky
on the Backbone of Day

I’m back—
After an 8-day staycation
with out-of-towner relatives.
Here are my wife and I
before breakfast at the Hotel del Coronado.
Hope all has been well with everyone.

Collision of Thoughts Unthinking (09-23)

hear I sometimes
the silent ones
so mischaracteriz’d

how are they?
or why?
to serve
to rule
to just pass time
with me?

possibly
my presuppos’d control
over them
be their way
of regulating my performances
both regular and unnatural
