MILK BATH IN THE SHOWER
The Hawk Deck 1:52pm
I stood bent in My Shower
& the milky foam
breathed across My Chest
& poured in streams
from My Two Breasts
like The Mother Wolf
in My Parents’ Nest

MY LOVELY FRIEND
The Hawk Deck 11:30am
I Saw A Star Of Blue
within My Field Of Red
It came behind a thought
as I languished in My Bed
It struck Me of A Friend
so very dear to Me:
She is starkly beautiful
and lives in misery

STAR SET
The Tomato-coloured Couch 8:32pm
I See A Peach-coloured Star
lowering Itself
beneath the wires
sinking into the fog
of the shoreline
It Is My Home Star

“Scary Shit”
The Tomato-coloured Couch 7:58pm
I Saw A Star Of Blue
surrounded by My Silver
It struck My View
as My Husband said
“Scary Shit — ” in front
of His Computer

PRIVATE SIGN
The Tomato-coloured Couch 4:40pm
I saw A Silver Star
in My Sea of Red
It told Me of My Thought
That Moment in My Head

PRIVATE PRAISE
The Hawk Queen Bed 2:53pm
I saw A Silver Star
glinting in My Yard
It told Me I’ve done well
not telling will be hard
