THE TRASH BIN

The Tomato-coloured Couch 8:28pm

I swept up a dust pan of spacial matter

from around the kitty litter box

— it contained the mass

of unnameable stars

and never-ending debris from their creation —

into the depths

of a black hole

containing the mass

of twenty-two billion suns

The Halo Book

My Voice rang out

beyond the Drive-thru microphone

That’s It –“

&

My Signature lies crumpled

on a Wilson’s exchange slip*

dropped in a concrete encasement

for an air conditioning vent

We see The Particles of Space

coalesce

uniting two illuminated Human Beings

against a World

& be heard

LETHAL

The Hawk Corner Room 12:56pm

Dressed in My Black Negligee

I carry the weight

of My Question Mark Ring

in The Mirror a bird

Black Wings outstretched

looks at Me

to see if I Am

Alive

EASTER

The Hawk Kitchen 12:12pm

I am The Little

Second Coming of Christ

wearing My Galaxy Underpants

cleaning cat hairs off

The Tomato-coloured Couch

I Am Here & Everywhere

re-defining God, Jesus

& The World

half-dressed

THE 1983 PRESIDENT OF COOPER UNION

Dangling From My Hem
