2024/Jimi-

I am from scorching deserts

From Home of the Diamond Backs and Cardinals

I am from copper mines under the canyon.

Sunny skies, it tasted like low humidity.

I am from red rocks

The Grand Canyon

Whose ravines I remember

As if they were my own.

I’m from cactus written and turquoise

From petrified wood and 22 tribes.

I’m from the dry wind and the

Purple and orange sunsets,

From national forests and parks!

I’m from a Fortnite world

With a battle

And ten outfits I can do myself.

I’m from downpours and sparse amounts of snow,

Neighborhood animals and birds singing in the morning.

From the Valentine State lost

To the Apache State

Used to keep me calm.

Under my bed was a stone

Spilling rivers

A cloud of water

To drift beneath my dreams.

I am from those moments -

Outside before I PSCd

Dandelion seeds fallen from the sky.
