Passion Eddy  

Book two of impromptu trilogy.

  Silkscreen of a Fabulous Chaparral


Is it not hard to consider life's marvelous foam
churning at the edge of our visual animation

somewhat like a moth traipsing through the lemon grove?
As light elects to emigrate across this landscape

the waveband is fairly wide, unbroken, free
of scattered anomalies and the surely intrinsic;

tethered by the immovable boulders and prolifica
of brush, the rather parochial banks of the arroyo

accept the likenesses of sticks, reptiles and beer cans
now mostly buried by sand.  Why mourn the vanquished

power of the usual reign as it creates the brown
flowering abyss, smaller and dryer than the will;
      and why not?
