uncanny microscopic flowers

 
Seven miles I walk 
until your tracks are gone
there is no one to follow
and no reason to fall down
in the still place
of the ellipse
in the desert place
of the integer
in the exiled place
it howls
all clean bones
and uncanny
microscopic flowers

geography

"Geography is the study of earth as the home of people" - Yi-Fu Tuan, 1991
I love Yi-Fu Tuan's work. He fell in love with a place - the desert. He called it his 'geographical double'. You can read about his life and work, view panoramic images of the land he loved and watch a short video of him here.
