The Hawk Deck
3:50 pm
Eye wonder what the other Gulls
think of My Gully
fraternizing w The Humans
& Cats
(or 1 Human & 1 Cat)
getting doled out the occasional piece
of rare bacon —
getting talked to
in high-pitched English —
getting admired as He preens
on His Rail
because He’s a PET —
Eye wonder…

My Daughter Eliza
has vacated Her Room
Her Lavender Room
Here On The Hawk —
Eye have laid a purple quilt
Over Her Naked Bed
2 signify Her Departure
& because I do not know
if I will make it up
for anyone else.

It’s as if
I’ve died already
& My Kids
have 2 go through My House
My Studio
& decide
what 2 do
w all My Work
hundreds of pieces —
“YOUR ART IS THE EXPRESSION OF YOUR FUCKING INSANITY”
as My Son
so expressly said 2 My Face

12:28 pm
In the still of Today’s Perfect Weather,
here on Gully’s Deck —
He nestled down by The Steps
& I thought 2 photograph Him
for posterity —
butt of course as I got up
2 retrieve my phone from The Kitchen,
He got up,
& instead of nestling down again,
as I hoped,
He did His Beautiful Arabesque,
not just once
butt w His other leg as well,
& so I complimented Him:
“Oh, how Beautiful —
such A Beautiful Gully –“

This is the Year
of Our Profusion of Lupine
@ every curve, roadside
across The Way in My Neighborhood:
The Yard of Mrs. Perron —
a welcoming spread of purple stalks
interspersed w mauve & blue
& white (rare) —
@ the corner of My Drive
just 2 little pastel pink
(as Daisies are My Competitor)

Last night Eye met a Texan
Debutante
(at least She looked like One)
Who wore pearls
& likes camping —
She was w Her Daughter
Who ate only a salad
that I could see
while She asked Me
about my burger
measly
& a supposed giant mozza stick
which Eye had pictured
looking phallic
butt which arrived
as a flat brown square
not hot enough
& when I got up to pay
I had something stuck
between My 2 Front Teeth
so My Good-bye Smile
was stilted

2:00 pm
She wore a Dress
the colour of Her Legs
Shapely Chiffon
w beige high heels —
The Dress wasn’t beige —
tinted pink — old-fashioned
Her Hair was dark
pulled back incidentally —
Eye watched Her Stride
repeatedly
from Her Reception Desk
2 The Mechanic’s Door
while I waited for My Car
in a school girl’s dress
She complimented
incidentally
as I paid my bill
exactly
