"Good Morning, World!"

The Hawk Kitchen 5:55pm

You Were There

behind the mirrors

when I opened the medicine cabinet

to get some Gravol & one Tecta

for Hunter’s stomach

You know He has a hiatal hernia

which is interfering with His oesophagus

but You Were There

My Bathroom Black Jesus —

am I helping You?

am I helping Hunter?

The Hawk Dining Room 2:22pm

In My Sleep This Morning

One Line came to Me

but I was too tired

to write It down:

“My Love Is As Deep As An Unsung Well”

Here It Is Penned

At This Time

while I spoon My Christmas Turkey Soup

out of a big black cup
