Alix – May 21 2000 – Finally Discovered My Home
I have finally
Discovered my home
The mellowed tang of melting leaves
Suits my nose.
I can finally distinguish
Eighteen shades of light green
Revel in the subtlety of designed
Jagged and lobed leaf-edges
Mud colored branches
Embrace instead of pierce
Barren sky without
Clouds that have comforted me.
I remain in love with
Red rock, spiny covered desert
Big slug moist embrace of west cascade
And now I add centipede and Honey
Suckle.
