SIGNS OF GREY
The Tomato-coloured Couch 3:11pm
I have slipped
into cashmere grey
I have looked
@ My Passing
vehicles as grey now —
differing shades
to reassure Me
on My Track

The Hawk TV Room 6:11pm
During The NYC September
of 1984
EYE painted
The Bull’s EYE
for Our Twin Towers
filmed by German Television —
when I mailed That Video
to My Father in Saudi Arabia
He never got It
I Believe M(EYE) Video Was Confiscated
by The Islamic Religious Police
Circulated Through Various Extremist Factions
inflamed by the overt display
of a beautiful Western Woman
with Long Blond Hair
doing & achieving such
A Public & Powerful Act —
I believe The Bombing
of February 1993 was instigated
by M(EYE) Painting
The Coup d’etat
is
Our Precious

The Hawk West Desk Window 12:06pm
I emerged dressed for a party
from The A Train
@ 110th Street
@night
& was blocked on the stairs
by a young punk
making hand signals
asking Me if I knew
where to get The A Train
I said, “You know perfectly well
where to get The A Train –”
but by then the crowd
was gone
I was back on the platform
two other muggers
approached from either side
I was caught
they demanded My Wallet
which was in a shoulder bag
I said, “What if I don’t give It to you?”
the thug from the stairs
pulled out a switch blade
I dug out My Purse —
the guy to My Left
took off My World Trade Center Watch
given to Me by My Mother
the guy to My Right looked
@ My Mother’s Silver Bangles
but didn’t take Them
The Hawk Kitchen Outpost 9:50am
I looked for A Silver Streak
out upon The Water
& saw A Silver Cloud
instead
meshed within
The Sky
parallel to
My Horizon

I Sit In A Potion
Of Sea Salt

The Hawk En Suit Bath 6:44pm
Remove The Crust
of Aeons’ Years —
Dispose of Your Treachery
into My Hallowed-out Hands —
within These Sinister Bubbles
I Reside to Exhume
The Blackest Blackness
of Faith Gone Awry
An amazing undertaking by an amazing artist…Joanna Hyde.
The Self Organizing Galaxy was a temporary art exhibit on a lower World Trade Centre building done by Joanna Hyde in 1984. She was a young artist at the time and had just graduated from Cooper Union when she completed the project. It is a relevant and truly amazing piece of Art. I have watched this video several times and I am in AWE of the dedication, skill and insight of Joanna as an Artist. What an accomplishment this is.
