Mid-December rainbow, Anza-Borrego Desert State Park, Southern California
last autumn rainbow
guiding my stumbling steps home—
wind shifts to the east

Shot
Imperial Sand Dunes Recreation Area, Southern California
a quick cell-phone shot
before the sands shift again—
windstorm to the east

Indigo bush at first light, Sonoran Desert, Southern Arizona
looking to the east
on Little New Year’s morning
for a smudge of grace

Safe
~~ 1 ~~
safe from prying eyes
one straight line of a love note
hidden in a book
~~ 2 ~~
safe from prying eyes
the limit of her patience
with its fraying edge
~~ 3 ~~
safe from prying eyes
a lane ensconced in shadows
somewhere in south Wales
~~ 4 ~~
safe from prying ears
the sound of wasted water
dripping down a drain
~~ 5 ~~
safe from prying eyes
all the pornographic parts
snipped and snapped and tossed
~~ 6 ~~
safe from prying eyes
forgotten case of whisky
underneath the stairs
~~ 7 ~~
safe from prying eyes
the old farmhouse east of town
where black widows weave
~~ 8 ~~
safe from prying eyes
a single grain of sugar
underneath the bowl
~~ 9 ~~
safe from prying eyes
children hidden in the reeds
near the river’s bend
~~ 10 ~~
safe from prying eyes
the way that leads from bondage
through a parting sea
~~ 11 ~~
safe from prying ears
the sound of Gaza’s mothers
weeping for their dead
