The Valley of the Devils
A panopticon of sentinel
Mountains
Tower over the landscape
In lords
Of peeled altitudes,
As the sky tries to pro
Trude -
In a blue askew.
This place
Connects to all places
As a face
Faces
The wastes
Where shadows
Connect
To
Shadows
&
Depths connect to shallows:
The valley
Of
The
Devils.

Totally R...
I feel like I have a valley of the devils,
within walking distance...
It is one of my favorite places...
Something of note, I think, is how these
places are being overridden by western cultures...
They are disappearing or being corrupted...
I think maybe evolution is an
inevitability...
However... There are aspects of it that are tragic...
Or like taking a camera there,
to film...
I wonder what effects, even just this,
has on the cultural construct...
