"Good Morning, World!"

The End Of Our Day

The Hawk West Desk Window 9:43pm

I lament the drawing

of the shade

upon The End Of Our Day

heralded by The Crescent Moon

and adjacent planet

accenting the twilight

of Sunset

seeping into the darkening

ridges of islands

and outer water ways

TRANSFIGURATION 4

The Tomato-coloured Couch 8:29pm

The Blue Jay is a sizeable

decorative

bird

picking grubs from the bark moss

of The Scraggly Apple

hopping to the newel posts

on the deck

for Me to have

His Full View

 

RED INSIDES

The Tomato-coloured Couch 2:38pm

The Sun-slash across

My Couch is calling Me

to sit in Its Tomato-coloured Shaft

to contemplate My Premises

— My Place In This House —

as The Slant moves along

below a sky light

in the cathedral ceiling

momentarily illuminating My Book

infusing The Book Mark Sash

with a glitter of brighter crimson:

I Am Internal To This Domain

 

CRUNCH

The Hawk Outpost 9:48am

There Was A Title

On My Mother’s Shelves:

Munching On Existence*

I Bite My Apple

As I Look Out

Favouring No Resistance
