autumn in the desert |

what was hot in summer begins to cool hearts are jogged in their resting places beat with an unknown destination they lean not to anyone’s understanding but reach for meaning there are no leaves to burn red and gold where there were bare shoulders new jackets ride fractals strain to what was looking back to the curve of lizard tails on warm red rocks they repeat themselves in great loops endlessly endlessly birds do not fly south seeking warmth but accept what is adequate this concludes summer in the desert |

Have you written of the colors of the mountains in dawn? I would like to see that from you. |
