Junior Gully, still brown & speckled
eating out of Gully’s dish

Morning
After Waking Up
2 watch Taylor Swift reels
on M(eye) Phone —
along w/ Drew Barrymore
Meghan Markle
& Others, none by choice —
Eye came downstairs
2 let The Cats in.
As Eye opened M(eye) Sliding Glass Door
a Great Blue Heron lofted past
2 settle on The Top
of M(eye) Scrub Spruce Horizon
2 stay there
while Eye composed
right on M(eye) Phone.
He sits there still
while M(eye) Tea steeps
as Eye wait
2 watch Him fly again.
Then as Eye looked up
from This Writing
He had disappeared.

Eye am sitting in Eliza’s Tiled Kitchen
hearing a chainsaw going nearby
in This Havoc-seated Town, City
Eye have never been 2 before.
Eliza is still sleeping
on Her Fold-down Couch
while Eye have vacated
The Air-conditioned Bedroom.
She had A Dinner last night, late
in honour of Her 30th Birthday
w/ Her Host/House Mother’s Family
from when Eliza was a foriegn exchange student
half a lifetime ago.
Yesterday too We visited The Mayan Ruins
of Edzna —
a fast 45 minutes South of Campeche —
2 discover The Ancient Stone Towers of Stairs
In The Rain We Arrived
In The Blaring Sun We Climbed
& took pictures of awe- inspiring stone-work
complete w/ Vultures Drying Their Wings
& Iguanas Basking On Timeless Rocks
In The Stillness of That Spiritual Ground —
Eye do not have to visit The Pyramids now.
