My Canada Day Night

My Bedroom  8:19am

Boy did Eye have fun!

With the over 50’s crowd

Complete with geriatric lovers

In each other’s arms

Under the dappled ceiling

Of red and green

In front of their country western band

Eye danced to “Good Golly Miss Molly”

In close proximity to a shy-faced cashier

Whose self-contained freeing up

Allowed me to know another

Side

 

MY PET

The Hawk Kitchen Outpost

9:44am

Gully is ringed by daisies now.

He stands in the rain

like a lawn ornament

in the grass I’ve grown wild —

His tameness is endearing

w/ His Quizzical Head

swivelling 2 the sequence

of thought —

or is He following

the wonder

animating the field

before Me?

Gentlemen Prefer Sunrise

The Hawk Corner Room 5:51am

The Star of M(eye) Horizon

punctuates Our Life

for one split second

She emerges

as a glint

to meld into

MY BALL

of Madness

and Delight

The Balcony Game

My Bedroom 8:41pm

Eye used to live on a balcony

With its rails so tall & strong

My husband’s cat cries there now

For a petting good & long

Eye pull my seated body up

After pulling her so close —

Eye grab the blackness I have painted

And haul My Self to Host

MY MORNING

My Bedroom 7:25am

The Call of The Wild Willet

All the way from Jordan Bay

Reaches out to me

Through the covers

The Clouds

While I lie in my bed

Alone with a cat

And coffee

I have prepared

Myself

 

 

#64–193h

The Hawk Corner Room 6:30am

Futuristic CONSTRUCT

meshed within ancient wood

remains envisioned

Caught

forever until complete

until consummation

upon M(eye) Island of Soul

upon M(eye) Cliffside of Existence

chaining M(eye) Partner of Mind

2 Body replete

PETER’S BIRTHDAY

The Hawk Deck 6:20am

The Scraggly Apple is glinting

in the early morning sun —

It is a half dead tree full

of rainbows —

Eye sea It glisten

without M(eye) glasses on

and so lay down contentment

for The Day

of M(eye) Dawn

 

WAR-N-ING

M(eye) Bedroom

7:43pm

If ever Eye sea

a drop of blood

on The White Breast

of M(eye) Gully

Eye WILL be turned

to kill

& so goeth

War

“The Spruce”

June 14 2017 Shelburne, NS 7:11am

Last night I listened

And I listened —

to The Expression of a Social

Out Cast —

Boy could He move that Mike

against a backdrop

of fake disco lights

I danced for Him

& the rest of  “Them” —

danced with the un-danceable

the infirm and the lonely.

I shook Their Hands.
