Desert Orbs full moon rising above the silhouetted hills-- a pie pan flung by the roadside shining Amaze, 5:1, Spring 2007 Residue Toenail clippings lurking in the ashtray -- I want to forget, but you've left so much behind. Amaze, 4:3, Summer 2006 Climatology Glacier, weeping away to high Sierra schist-- the dunes of Death Valley shimmer below. Kiku Makura, Nov. 2006 |
