SHOULD EYE BE?
The Hawk Portico 2:00pm
EYE am very happy
sitting here on My Portico
in bathrobe & slippered feet
on the 6th of December
in the sun
on this beleaguered Anniversary
of the 1989 Montreal Massacre*
having just begun
My Painting
titled “I Have Poured Out M(EYE) Black Heart”
* On December 6, 1989, fourteen female engineering students were gunned down, another ten women and four men injured, at Ecole Polytechnique in Montreal, Quebec. The massacre was carried out single handedly by Marc Lepine who claimed he “hated feminists.” He killed himself with the final shot.
