"Good Morning, World!"

SEE OUR MOON

The Hawk West Desk Window 9:35pm

I live in a fortress

of sanctity

where My Every Word

is a sacred step

to where I already am

locked-in by a sky

of charcoal clouds

wafting over Our Crescent

Moon

SEE OUR SILVER

The Hawk West Desk Window 6:18pm

I am seething to write

what a friend suggested I paint —

I cannot paint It

for It still moves

crashes

in fleeting streaks

all around Me

like the clatter

of shooting cameras

as some Superstar

emerges from a limousine
