The desert nights chill the air
Keep fire nearby.

Sadness of the Moon
Tonight, the moon is full of laziness —
Like a beauty reclining on many cushions
Before going to sleep, with light and distracted touch,
Caressing the contours of her breasts.
Upon the satin backs of soft avalanches
She abandons herself to the touch of her own hands,
And faintly looks down upon pale white visions
That climb into space like tropical vines.
From time to time, in her lonely delirium,
She lets a quick tear shoot across the sky.
And a pious poet, awake all through the night,
Takes this pale tear like a fragment of opal
Into the palm of his hand, and places it within his heart,
Far from the eyes of the sun.
— Charles Baudelaire

Full Moon Over The Sea of Cortez Leave a comment
Full Moon Over The Sea Of Cortez (January 25, 2016) Image by kenne
I had a paper moon. Stamped and certified. Mine was
a colonia moon, a barrio moon, a suburban moon. I
knew where I was, where I was supposed to be, where
I was allowed to go, and that was anywhere. We lived
the outhouse moon, the tortilla moon, the channel
12 bullfight Tijuana moon. And then we migrated
north, like monarchs, following the light.
. . . My moon rose over tidy houses.
— from the poem “Codex Luna” by Luis Alberto Urrea

Waxing poetic
On a waxing gibbous moon,
Haiku at it’s worse.

Alone In The Night Shadows II — Image by kenne
Alone in the night shadows
Abandoned in the darkness
Tall sentinels raise their arms
In the light of the full moon
Facing the old ranch house
Where the poet is signing
As the night-raven sings
In concert with howling coyotes
Under the alluring moonlight.

Alone in the night shadows
Abandoned in the darkness
Tall sentinels raise their arms
When the full moon is out
Facing the old ranch house
Where the poet is signing
As the night-raven sings
In concert with howling coyotes
Under the trembling moonlight.

Capturing The Moment — The Full Wolf Moon 2 comments
Image by kenne
Having been born in the month of January, and given my independent nature, I feel a relationship to what some Native Americans called the Wolf Moon since it appeared when hunger wolves howled outside their villages. Technically the Wolf Moon occurred a little before midnight on the 26th. I seem to have more success in photographing the moon just before sunrise, so this Wolf Moon image was taken as it was about to set over the Tucson mountains.
On cold winter nights
Hunger wolves howl at the moon
A midnight high point.

On the Road to Ruin — An Ode To Danger People
A time of dangerous opportunity
A time to discard sacred cows
A time for spiritual renewal
A time of shared empathy
A time of caring
A time to create
A time to mute siren songs
A time to be “danger people.”
