Arizona wild cotton (Gossypium thurberi) is a deciduous shrub with a lovely fall color. Also called desert cotton and
Mt. Lemmon cotton, this shrub can grow up to 10 feet tall by 4 feet wide. It has beautiful creamy white summer flowers,
and its palate leaves turn yellow and red in the fall before they fall off, and the plant goes dormant.
Wild Cotton Blossom — Photo-Artistry by kenne
I’m left alone
to face a blossom
in the darkness —
preparing an image.
A busy day inside.

Blossoms now gone
Green leaves become read
Fall has arrived.

Wild Cotton Still-Life by kenne
A place to start
look at you
kenne g
you have taken multi-tasking to a fault
you need to be
more focused
uncomplicated
this is what they tell me
information is good
opinion
music
poetry
photo art
all are good
but, you are inexorable
demurred, I say
I do what I do
because I can
maybe you can’t,
you’re the problem
not me
all things are connected
not an isolated island
I choose to stay linked
open secret places
plant seeds
harvest thoughts
bucket ideas
but, you discard mind droppings
I mix and match
generating energy
to form inspiration
feel the heat
see the stream
it’s all shit
the shit sits
generating food
for tomorrow’s ideas
powering the music
stand up and dance
when I’m not here
there will be a place to start
but, you can add to my pile
