no one shade of blue

the sky is no one shade of blue. 

like she is no one side of beautiful.

the thing about los angeles 
is falling in love 

with each and every single one. 

i want to live bright my years in the desert

i want to live bright my years in the desert.
i want to wake up with her light
and run
hard enough to feel her afternoon air drinking all the moisture from my body.
thirstier than ever i want to get older
and wear every day.
and when i am worn i want to sit still
long enough to see her exhale
a cool wind,
sundown
and hummingbirds.
