Balloonatics over the Playa...
Pilar Woodman is a photographer based in San Francisco. Of the image, she says: This was my first ballon ride over the Playa in 2006. Many thanks to Jeff Haliczer and the beauty
of volunteering, and great luck! The second ride was the morning of
the burn, untethered, from way outer playa, up and over the City, to
about ...7
o'clock on the outer ring. we were part of what had to be one of the
slowest speed chases ever. Jeff had tried to get everything approved,
but after too much rigamarole, just flew his balloon, and we had the
brc rangers, the blm rangers, and the Nevada state police following us
for the 30 or so minutes we were in the air. Hahaha, awesome.

The hills can tell
by how flat your eyes are
how near a thing has become.
Dogs and wolves share a denning instinct.
To dig down.
The straw is a calendar.

Beatific, shock-white frost
jagged around the edge of the leaf. Moon,
your daughter is the tip of my tongue.
But in the moonlight
he has not been heard.

On the bus, we catch each other to the point of acknowledgement
then turn away.
One man waits with an unlit cigarette on his lip.
The soft side of his wrist tattooed
with an ideogram. Silver links of his watchband
then turn away.

Shout for joy!
Shout for joy! But do not
wake the dead, our friends
are below the silence
welcoming you.

The sleeper
is pulled
out in the middle of his most beautiful dream.

A butterfly
darkens. Lowers itself from the massive white cloud
migrating north toward the Sahara.
The desert is moving south.

when people are engaged with their sleep,
I can hear your footsteps....
Your footsteps... oh dear breeze!!

The worst
Thanksgiving happened at your house. Yes, yours.
Don’t you remember that year? The one right before I graduated from
college?
