Arizona Midnight
Strewn across the vault of ink,
Runes and constellations link-
ing platinum silver fiery space
Unfathomed grace, untiring place.
Stare until the nod of head
There until the plod to bed.

Beneath the Rocks
Waters, depth, and colors cold,
Daughters of the breath of old,
In the stone there stirs a word,
Grain where murmurs truth unheard

Thanks Eve. I got my inspiration and encouragement in Ann Arbor and Berkeley/SDG.
