Corvette Raffle at St. Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church Tucson Greek Festival — Image by kenne
With so many leaves, the sun waves good day
with many stands shines, shines the sky
and those ones inn irons and those others are in the earth.
Quiet anytime now, the church bells will signal.
This earth is theirs and ours.
Beneath the earth in their crossed arms
they hold the rope of the church bells,
they are awaiting the hour, waiting to signal the resurrection
this earth is theirs and ours
no one can take it from us
Quiet anytime now, the church bells will signal.
— from The Church Bells Will Signal by Yiannis Ritsos

You try not to stop
When food looks and smiles so good
How can you say no?

Tucsonan Activists — Image by kenne
These are amazing: each
Joining a neighbor, as though speech
Were a still performance.
Arranging by chance
To meet as far this morning
From the world as agreeing
With it, you and I
Are suddenly what the trees try
To tell us we are:
That their merely being there
Means something; that soon
We may touch, love, explain.
And glad not to have invented
Such comeliness, we are surrounded:
A silence already filled with noises,
A canvas on which emerges
A chorus of smiles, a winter morning.
Placed in a puzzling light, and moving,
Our days put on such reticence
These accents seem their own defense.

Saguaros In Sabino Canyon — Image by kenne
The blackness
of the sky,
caused by
changing
blue to black
in Photoshop
removing all color
changing the
vibrations
captured by your
optical nerve —
what you see
is not always
what you get.

4th Avenue Street Fair, Tucson, Arizona — Image by kenne
No chance of rain here
walking down the avenue
from booth to booth
dodging people not looking
bands playing on a nearby stage
stopping for a beer and a snack
only to photograph people eating.

Black Mountains Highway Into The Sunset In Northwest Arizona — Image by kenne
“And soon it is nothing but beautiful warmth and wind and speed and sun down the empty road.
Sometimes it’s a little better to travel than to arrive.”

Village of Elgin, Arizona, Wine Tasting Room (June 23, 2018) — Image by kenne
One day in June
we tosted raising
a glass with new
friends on the road
I quoted the poet
sounding effete:
“Oh, it was a brave
man who drink one.”
Feeling brave, we
proceeded to drink.

Somewhere in the Dark
My check engine light is on.
You know the one that comes on
even when everything seems fine,
but you know that it’s only a matter
of time before everything comes to a full stop?
Yeah. That.
My check engine light is on.
