selection..

Dolphins leaping up
from setted sun reflection,
land in mirrored stars

Palestine moon rise
sand beneath sage brush, both painted
with cool blue answers

Two birds of prey
circle in a hot high sun
carrion below

A prophet answers
questions of gathered people
with single sand grains

Rains begin falling
on ancient drought aged dirt flats
first draughts of ocean

To a new ocean
dolphins swim from older seas
the first mammals there

Dolphins leaping up
through rising sun's reflections
remember night's stars
