Tucson sunsets are never
The sky turns red

The sky
doesn’t use words.
It just turns gold,
then amber,
then impossible.
And somehow
we all get the message:
Fall is here.

Clouds Over the Desert — Image by kenne
Clouds roll lazily over the desert sky,
late light bending low—
like Bob Dylan humming
through an iPhone.
Nothing to hold on to
but the way the day lets go.

The Evening Works In Grayscale Leave a comment
Black and White Sunset — Image by kenne
Evening works in grayscale.
The mountains turn honest,
stripped of their bright talk.
The sun lowers itself
behind the ridge—
another shift done,
another mark made clean.

Photography patronizes.
Life moves—
blur, breath, forgetting.
A flash halts it,
fixes detail
into permanence—
which is its lie.

Sonoran Sunset — Image by kenne
Sonoran Negative
Sun leans low,
half-caught in the cactus ribs—
its body broken
into light & shadow.
Above, clouds drift,
wisps scattered
like torn paper,
like smoke
from some far-off fire.
The desert does not move.
Stone listens.
Thorn remembers.
Even the horizon
waits.

September Sunset
The sky doesn’t console—
it interrogates.
Beauty here is provisional,
a vanishing thesis of light.
Orange dissolves into ash.
The mountains pretend to remember.
We pretend not to fear
the argument of shadows.

The sun sets behind the mountains
Becoming a silhouette against
A bright orange and red sky.

Sunset Over The Tucson Mountains — Image by kenne
I look at a sunset
and begin to wonder
what is the relationship
between the senses
and matters of beauty,
art and taste responding
one’s feelings and emotions?
The quality of being.

Night Hawk Over The Tucson Mountains (August 11, 2022) — Image by kenne
Night Hawks
They scissor edges of twilight, cutting
black shapes into sky. The wet silver
of quick wings open against eternity,
as if to erase an end with a beginning.

Tucson/Avra Valley Aquifer — Panorama by kenne
The Tucson Mountains separate the Avra Valley and the Tucson Basin, which contain natural aquifers.
Recharge basins have been placed in the Avra Valley, where Colorado River water is blended with the groundwater,
providing water to the Tucson area.
This panorama is at the west edge of the Tucson Mountains where the recharge basins can be seen in the distance.
