Basking blue-eyed Chameleon,
Under hot desert equator.
Baking raw under
Mothers flaming arm.
Cactus dreams meandering
North through ocean-like dunes.

Enter slanted sun,
The blue-eyed panther under
Poke-a-dotted rays of outstretched
Old man trees arms.
Green moss skins afoot
Century old red wrinkled gods.

Move under distant light,
The blue-eyed polar bear
Dancing on lily pads of ice.
A world of melting glass
Breathes heat visible to all.

Fly into fog woven clouds,
Blue-eyed raven sits in gnarled branches
Looking upon breathing swamp mist.
Life in melted green.
Sound echoes hallowed stumps.

Raven dives through the clouds,
Transforming into blue-eyed seagul.
Oceanic breeze whistles the high sky,
Over rolling motion of
Blue liquid blood life.

Seagul lands on skyscraper
As blue-eyed pigeon.
Sun falls absent above the glow
Of fast darting masses.
Pigeon lands on dirty concrete confusion.

Blue-eyed man sits in rags
Under mighty man structure.
With a cup in hand, begs for silver treasure.
Waiting for his ticket out,
Back to the great Mojave.
