It is just a memory. Symbolic of everything that will fade.
This is how we pass, like we weren’t even here.
It is now.
Red-rock landscapes.

"Take away the dessert, the rocks, but not the snow
from me."
"Take away the sky,” I yelled back. The silence I

Already. This is another way to: still gaze, sail, drift,
live on one thought, one human being. 'Connection'

My fingers trying always trying. A lifetime spent to
define,
to create the murmur of cottonwood trees.
Wake me up or/and blow away.
