THEN WHEN DEATH LAUGHED AT US

Under the cold, our fingers shrink like lips before the astringency

while we are biting into fresh quinces.

We push our palms into the deep openings of the coats

 – everyone in their warm pocket fireplaces,

earlobes and nose tips are witnessing the sharpness of the wind,

saying; Hurry home,

so we don’t stand here,

 it’s always cooler by the water!

 Don’t come back to hug me,

I’ll see you another day.

Now, hurry and get up there,

it’s cold by the water!

 Floods are caused by various geophysical mechanisms in a wide range and of great power. Objectives are considered on geological time and space scales, but the main criteria of climatic, topographical and geological factors of the channel predictably influence and limit the size and extent of local floods in floodplains. Many of these effects are specific and not topographical or climatic, with damage, for example, local correlation of specific types of floods. But some are less specific measures, including geological control over the time, location, connection and magnitude of natural dam failures. In this paper, we describe the main factors that affect the magnitude or insignificance of floods and how these factors vary temporally and spatially over geologic time and spatial scales. 

Or risks are addressed. Even experienced hydrologists and geologists each consider floods to be of scientific interest beyond modern experience, such as the Pleistocene Missoula floods. Such large floods are unique. 1. Due to its uniqueness and role in shaping the landscape, it played an interesting and dramatic role in phrasing 2. Flashes for inquiry and debate, but they are not and usually considered. Normal geophysical component 3. Certificate behavior. 

But really, floods of any size and source can be considered a geological process on the same level as any other Earth system, so tectonics and the atmosphere have attributes, causes, effects, and even correlations. Causes processes such as circulation. Practitioners of paleoflood hydrology, who study floods of various scales and in different geologic periods and environments [Kochel et al. Baker, 1982], well-placed rates and the evaluation, description, and even quantification of these correlations. Indeed, many of the articles in this volume present examples of floods that occur under certain conditions as a result of these geological, physiographic, and climatic interactions. The purpose of this paper is to provide a general context for individual paleoflood studies on landscapes. 

Systematic characterization of the spatial and temporal distribution of large floods and flood-causing mechanisms can thus provide a framework for the ecological status of floods and floods in Earth’s history. These results are consistent with the vapor and physical limits for surface flooding determined from total snow. A closer look at flood-generating processes From an empirical perspective, the magnitude, duration, and extent of river floods vary greatly depending on the source mechanism, global location, geology, and physiography, but despite this variation, how large a flood is.

There are real physical limits to what can be. Meteorological floods are caused by various types of storms that deliver a volume of water up to 1011 m3 for several days or weeks, as well as from seasonally stable climatic conditions that deliver more than 1012 m3 for several weeks or months, and the highest leads to flow. As much as 105 m³/s in large, continental-scale basins. The main limits for meteorological flooding depend, first of all, on the level and volume of precipitation, as well as on the efficiency of distribution of precipitation concentrates to channel networks. 

Global and US flood records show that primarily for basins affected by individual storms, the largest flows occur in areas where atmospheric moisture or storm tracks are intercepted by local topographic relief.For larger basins, the largest fluxes result from seasonally stable climate patterns and, on a global basis, tend to be in tropical regions with more moisture. The contribution of high-relief topography to meteorological flooding is particularly noteworthy because of its dual effects of (1) raising atmospheric moisture, thereby increasing local precipitation, and (2) facilitating more rapid concentration of runoff into channels. 

Floods from dam failures and terrestrial fresh water sources such as lakes and glaciers have similar total volumes to meteorological floods, up to 1013 m3, but larger 2-107 m³/s with waste. During the Pleistocene Ice Age, glaciers and changing hydrologic conditions disrupted drainage systems, causing the largest well-documented dam floods to breach ice dams and basin divides of the Great Lakes. From the Global perspective, the magnitude, duration, and extent of river floods vary greatly depending on the source mechanism, global location, geology, and physiography, but despite this variation, there are real physical limits to how large a flood can be.

The main limits for meteorological flooding depend, first of all, on the level and volume of precipitation, as well as on the efficiency of distribution of precipitation concentrates to channel networks.

Global and US Water Regulations indicate that the largest runoff for a basin affected by individual storms in the first instance is when atmospheric moisture or storm tracks are intercepted by topography. For the larger basins, the largest fluxes result from seasonal climate conditions and occur in the tropics, where there is more moisture on a global basis. The contribution of relief topography to meteorological flooding is particularly high because of its two-fold effect of (1) raising atmospheric moisture, thereby increasing precipitation, and (2) concentrating flow movement into channels.  

Floods from external dams and terrestrial freshwater sources such as lakes and glaciers have total volumes similar to meteorological floods, up to 1013 m3, but less than 2-107 m³/s. L is greater. With. The Pleistocene glacial reglaciations disrupted fluctuating hydrologic resource systems, leading to the failure of ice dams and basin divides of the Great Lakes, the largest well-documented dam floods. From the Global perspective, the magnitude of river floods, a very global place, varies with water volume and power source mechanism, geology, and physiography, but depending on the difference, there are real physical limits to how large flood transport can be. Meteor floods are caused by seasonal climatic conditions of several days or weeks up to 1011 3, while the control of the water volume is different, leads to big. As much as 105 m³/s in large, continental-scale basins.

seeking ghosts

i sometimes think

of my life as trying

to play jazz in a

world of strip clubs

and heavy metal

i’m a neon light

weaving through

broken glass and

burnt spoons

an old man on a

porch seeking ghosts

that may or may not

have ever existed

the lonesome howl

of a saxophone in

the rain

frank always had a

way of making me

stop and ponder just

how deep did i want

the pool to be

it’s a birthday

spent in a cemetery

but it’s not the

tombstone i was

hoping for

———————————————————–

another excuse to get depressed

i come from a long

line of radicals

irreverent assholes

hell bent on drinking

away the pain

let’s go fuck like

the fish in the indian

ocean

let’s go dance naked

on the north pole

let’s go march through

the streets of los angeles

chanting for a better

tomorrow that doesn’t

exist

another birthday

another excuse to get

depressed

another night spent

alone

———————————————————————

the never-ending chaos of the world

it’s every night

alone in bed trying

to sleep through the

pain of life, death,

old bones and the

never-ending chaos

of the world

there’s a part of

you that longs for

death more than

the other part is

willing to take

three steps into

the great wide

open and live

a little

there’s no room

for broken souls

any longer

they are being

replaced by robots

and dogs that need

batteries

there’s no gold

ever dreamed about dunking

i remember being the

only white kid on my

basketball team and

we were at a summer

camp as a team

and one of my black

teammates noticed i

was the only white

kid that wasn’t in

the free throw finals

he asked why was that

i said you guys never

allow me to get in the

paint

i have to stand out here

and shoot threes all game

let’s have a three-point

contest and see who the

fuck wins that

i then asked why there

weren’t any black guys

in the free throw finals

he didn’t answer

instead he asked me

if i ever dreamed

about dunking

i said no

have you ever dreamed

about being automatic

from thirty-four feet

he laughed and asked

have you

i chuckled and said

i don’t have to dream

that

i’m good from wherever

i am in the gym

he dared me to shoot

from where i was

forty feet from the

basket

i took two dribbles

and let it fly

i banked it in because

i could

——————————————————————–

take secrets to the grave

the spanish princess

and i trade war stories

of childhoods torn apart

way too soon

and i know each confession

is a test of my loyalty

but she knows i take secrets

to the grave if asked to

but she also knows i am

capable of burning bridges

and completely erasing a

soul from my memory

with a snap of the fingers

her eyes are smoldering

and she wishes to smother

me with her breasts

i laugh and curse all

the miles between us

one day, before the

tumors take us all

we will meet

lock lips

and come back up

for air a few days

later

"Moon Walker"


Never dreamed
I would find myself
here


after so many years of life
on tender Mother Earth


rubberized boots
walking
and breathing through a mini globe


marvelling at the skin of the moon
a pitted and quiet
barren buffer against a cast
of stones and new discoveries 


almost soundless
but eerie


as the distant horizon
takes on a reddest hue
bringing me to a stop


red smoke creeping toward me
settling over the mouths of craters


what could be burning
and where is it coming from?


I quicken my slow plodding
and come to the edge of a gaping crater


slow smoke reddish into a dull pink
coming out of a cave on the far wall


I consider climbing down
but something whooshes out of the cave
and flies over me


I duck
looking up as it passes


a Nazi insignia on the bottom
of an old flying saucer


war seems to be everywhere 


I turn and face the sphere of earth
out there in dark space
so near I feel
I could touch it


seemingly nothing ever changes


so I wake up and wonder why
there's someone's blood in my bed.

Spinning


Sweet earth of blue
what have we done to you


I stand on your sister moon


squinting through space
over to your sphere


my slow spinning
mother earth
turning into a lonely


immense skull


but the great change is coming
earth reborn
with God's people.

Soon


All the land of all the people
all the years settled and dying


so many believing
sky, sea, and sacred places


and prayers and rapture
of saints to heavenly clouds


the Word
directing
footfall and stars

An ant

In the garden so small, yet bold,
An ant navigates, steadfast and old.
Tiny feet upon the earth they roam,
Seeking crumbs and treasures to bring home.

With strength not seen by a simple glance,
They carry burdens, they advance.
A colony working as one,
Their tasks in harmony, never undone.

Their homes underground, a bustling maze,
Where life's intricate dance always plays.
In unison, they toil and strive,
Their unity makes them truly thrive.

Oh, to be like the ant, small but strong,
To persevere when the journey seems long.
A testament to diligence and might,
The ant embodies a resilient light.

Steps


The auric field 
Of my own nemesis
Own your tribe
Nurture the sockets of your heart
As if a newly polished
High school ground
That transports your
Little brittle garden 
Into a big pool of 
Melancholic ambrosia. 
My other half as if it
Gently spoke my rawness
My wet treasured hydrangeas
Into a wooden coffin of 
Tumultuous laughing stock
The soft peached rainbow
Bulking around the lawn
The little trinklet of a choir
My sudden bemused allegory
It's fair enough 
Leaden steps 
With my own nemesis
