“What is the universe? Space. Out of space came a coagulation that became a nebula, and out of the nebula, millions of galaxies, and within one constellation of galaxies, a sun, with our little planet circling it. Then out of the earth came us, the eyes and the consciousness and the ears and the breathing of the earth itself.”
– Joseph Campbell

Let us
Let us ride balloons: /
Up to the heavens and moons. /
Light as grace and stars.

“As long as they talk about you, you’re not really dead, as long as they speak your name, you continue. A legend doesn’t die, just because the man dies.”

Watchful
Watch as night gathers. /
The moon and clouds coalesce. /
Fears and dreams do, too.

Morning fire
Fire wakes crisp fall sky. /
Morning cloud plumes like fresh smoke. /
Air cold as dead dreams.
