"Good Morning, World!"

Month: June, 2014

VENUSIAN

The Hawk West Desk Window 9:22pm

I stepped out of My Cheap Grey Capris

onto The Shores Of The New World —

in My Wake are carried The Multitudes

in My Reach The Hands Of Men

I’ve known, and will know

as I live My Life-long Pursuit

across That Breadth Of Existence

to which I have been birthed

THE MILKY WAY

The Hawk Portico 5:00pm

I Am A Galactic Citizen

spelled out on the bronze flyleaf

of My Diary — housed

within the confines

of outer and inner space

where nothing happens

with-which We are aware

except by Way

Of Human Ejaculation

At The End Of My Journal

The Hawk West Desk Window 6:34pm

My Famous Shower Of Lights

was not blinding

Its Radiant Spears

Snapped Me To Attention

and Made Me See

For An Eternity

GALACTIC CITIZEN*

The Hawk Kitchen 7:10pm

In The Briefest Moment

I Saw The Spiral

Of A Particle Of Dust

Against The Black Of My Cell Phone

And Suddenly Understood

The Necessity Of FORM

Before My Breath

Took It Away

WE LEAVE OUR PRINCESSES

WE LEAVE OUR PRINCESSES

We leave our Princesses

trapped in Their Towers

no matter what F. Scott Fitzgerald said

to His Wife-to-Be

ninety-one years ago

I am still Towered

but not scared – only mad

deciding not to invite

the few friends I have

to see My Castle

on The Sea Shore

with My Husband @ work

while I lie on The Couch

“You’re Going to Write & Take Care of This House”

Jackie Blair

November 3rd, 2011   The Hawk

9:11 am

You’re Going To Write & Take Care of This House”

I will be Under – stood

as I Stand within “the Mists of Time”

as The Houses sit with skirting mist

wafting off The Frost

hovering below The Tree Line

The Hawk Corner Office

Jackie Blair

I see The Silver out there
in lateral striations over The Ocean —
It must be apprehended, reigned in
not just by Me – through Me

Let Me Look @ It Again

when The Silver first came
in The Shower of Lights
I was stultified, stupefied
forced to call on Christ

now I see It Here
in My Life’s surroundings
so Christ must call
on Me

WHAT DID THAT BLACK OPRAH DRESS REPRESENT?

Jackie Blair

 That “O” Dress
Black Robe
styled from the 50’s
told Me I was powerful —
one of the most powerful women
on the planet —
if not THE most powerful —
My Anger, My Fury,
was justified —
In That Dress
I was The Black Jesus
ready to allow My Self
entrance
into a Mental Hospital
for The Sake of My Person (et al)
Beliefs

 I drank from a very large beaker
sweet Red Wine
called XOXOX
I crossed My Legs
and beat My Right Silver Slipper
into the evening air

 I wore gobs & gobs of silver
jewelry
— all that I owned —
but had the worth of one real estate transaction
under my belt
BOY WAS I MAD —
I shot off the centre
of My Tomato-coloured couch
& stomped around The House
heckling
cackling
&
swearing up
&
down

 I demanded to be taken out to…
