Arizona you were anything but

Arazona, Arizona
you were everything but what I expected.

You were spam and eggs, steak, green tea, fry bread, long car rides, dusty snot filled noses,
dry, parched, constipated and rough, laundromats, stern glances, uncomfortable silence, cold nights, gas stops, itchy scalps and busy mind.

Arizona

You were clear sunny days, layer upon layer of lessons, warm comfy nights falling asleep by the firelight, morning laughter, cereal and milk, painting in the wild, bathing in moonlight, howling rolling hills and laughter, corn mush and warm tortillas, family friends, turquoise and sweet tobacco, unexpected visits, medicine and rainbow colored.

You were unexpected Arizona and I loved every minute of you.
