Clyde River, Nova Scotia 2:22pm
I pulled only half-way
off the road on Cape Island
to watch the biggest cloud
of Starlings I had ever seen –
they swooped, as a blanket
over my car & billowed
into a bare tree, decking it
with their blackness, leaf-like
& when they exploded
like fireworks
to mat themselves on overhead wires
I was entranced
The Hawk Kitchen Outpost 9:22am
A Beam Of Silver
Strikes The Ocean
Beyond Our Neighbours’ Yellow House
“And The Reason Is You”
Strikes Me From The Radio
The Hawk Dining Room 7:56am
The Sun Streams
Its Way Down
To The Ocean
In Trapezoidal Sections
Through The Mottled
Water-colour Sky
The Hawk Corner Room 7:11am
I got up to see
The Sun Rise
over This World O’ Mine
& over the criticism
of This Daughter O’ Mine
Who Ain’t Seen Nothin’
yet
This is M(EYE) 2,000th Post
and EYE have reached The Heart of Planet Earth —
EYE have reached Africa where EYE spent the first year of M(EYE) Life
in Gabon
and was held in the arms of the original Great White Doctor, Albert Schweitzer.
The Hawk Kitchen Outpost 12:50pm
Why Have EYE
got to call M(EYE) SELF
The God-damn 2nd
Coming
in order to get
Attention from
Powerful White Men??
They Can Go Fuck
Them Selves!!
The Hawk Laundry Room 9:36am
EYE’ve swept up another Galaxy
with both M(EYE) Hands
against the white background
of M(EYE) dryer top
It consisted, EYE guess
of lint & cat hairs
& maybe a grain or two of sand
from Somebody’s Old Beach Towel
The Hawk Queen Bed 7:55am
Last Night EYE had a heated
discussion
with M(EYE) Husband
as to whether EYE am
The Messiah —
He said that is a Jewish concept
& that We are all
The Second Coming of Christ —
so that’s what EYE’m sticking to —
The Second Coming of Christ
like EYE was told —
like EYE told M(EYE) Self
under M(EYE) Shower of Lights
