Briny, fragrant mist Aeons of earth’s processes Smudging my glasses

Night stroll on the beach Crabs shuffling across the sand Stars shining above

Sundown on the beach Orion constellation History twinkles

A day at the beach Crashing waves, turbulent sea A peaceful spirit

The Anthropocene Malls, Starbucks, and soccer moms Rich fossil record

ferns in my bedroom sphaeropteris cooperi regal silhouette

a cup of coffee breakfast in america fresh sourdough bread

11:30 Departures and arrivals Greetings and farewells

48 hours A San Francisco morning I’ll keep my heart, thanks.

Blank sheet of paper Endless possibilities In a finite space

The Armstrong limit The threshold of outer space? Nearer than my home
