Here is a poem I wrote after spending a few days camping in the desert in 1997 at Anza-Borrego Desert State Park.
| The Rocks of This Desert The rocks are animals A giant turtle head with open mouth and sharp beak A pig, fat, on a ridge top A hippo, half submerged in the coarse sand The rocks are atmosphere Places of sunlight, and shadow Damp chill in morning Dry warmth in evening The rocks are shelter A nook for a fern, a surface for lichen A crack for a lizard, a slant for pictographs Barriers - to the scented wind The rocks are time Witness to the seasons Witness to the cycles of plants and animals Witness to our footsteps The rocks are danger Slowly they shift Slowly they split Quickly they fall and crush - - - In the high valley is a table rock The morteros beckon in the deep silence My hand feels the round smooth marks of The People The rocks of this desert Now... a stone holds my flapping tarp And with stone I pound a stake The stone feels my touch And I do not throw it when finished, no, I set it down John Stokes 2/12/1997 |

Here's another poem. At 2400 Kettner Boulevard, in San Diego, CA is a building with several art galleries and artist's studios. The building is in the path of the San Diego International - Lindbergh Field Airport approach. About every five minutes, a plane will come, the noise is incredible, the huge plane screams in the sky, passing just overhead at fantastic speed. I've often thought about the total obliteration one would cause if it slammed into the building.
