Tempered delirium replaces manic hope; throaty breeze control in the arroyo
Jaguar of the Moon refine(r)
seismic cows spawn panic
Latino sesshin 23
at Manuel Viola ranch
pushing Sam Francis into the Mother vein
transform(er)
David in a ravine; Psalms ooze from a hungry sigh
sperm wiggling inside a doe
quilts of 9 zinc
swirling vapor hieroglyphs
gonad wailing Hispanic
Venus pastures
Heraclitus’ epistle a skink; fragile ceilings underfoot
Sun’s art of shadow and glow
in the hour of the dragon
bats shitting pollen
Sonoran origami
in cholla carcass webs
coded ocotillo
barreled bloom
percussion of palms
and blowing sands
all the while, Markab shines.
