Report #55

This week's Report is a special "on the road" edition, coming to you from the Sonoran Desert of southwest Arizona. I flew down for some hiking with my cousin in the Cabeza Prieta Wilderness before driving up through Utah for a reading at Ken Sanders Rare Books in Salt Lake. The landscapes were incomparable and it was great adding almost a dozen birds to my life list. 

The poem for this week was untitled when I read it for the show. Now I'm calling it "Origins."

Music this week is by Jim Pepper from his album The Path (Enja, 1988). It's a Thelonius Monk tune called "Reflections." The album features Pepper on tenor sax, Kirk Lightsey on piano, Santi DeBriano on bass and John Betsch on drums.
