The Hawk Window Seat 6:25pm
We have two sunsets
going on here:
first in The West
where You would expect
to see The Fire
& then in The East
from The Corner Room
where layered grey clouds
are tinged pink
with the throwback
of a diminishing sun
The Hawk Outpost 6:00pm
Look For A Rainbow
See A Smidgen In The Clouds
Catch It In Your Book:
I am watching
the beginnings of a rainbow
reaching higher above
My Kitchen Window
The Tomato-coloured Couch 3:00pm
I come from The Body
of Black Light
In Death & Sickness
I abide
to shine out
for Reconciliation
I am The Stamp
of Desperation —
Humanity gone
awry
in order
to See
The Tomato-coloured Couch 6:44pm
Everything I pick up
is self-referential
My Environment
conforms to My Mind
My Sky is My Sky
My Earth is All
I am in Love
with Life
All Mine
The Hawk Outpost 8:00am
The Sun came up
a luminous red
over My Very Ocean
The Sky was streaked
with highlighted clouds
and I was in
My Heaven
Tonight Marks The Thirtieth Anniversary
of The Signing of
Thank You For Watching
The Hawk Deck 8:20am
At Night I go to sleep
with the sweep of Cape Light
turned to My Bed
in the morning I wake
to step out on My Deck
immersed in the dew
with the waves
at My Head
The Hawk Outpost 6:49pm
The Scraggly Apple
is illuminated
with the eastern clouds
a rare mauve pink
The moon is up
My Fuchsia Painting is finished
& My Husband has said
I can hang It over
The Tomato-coloured Couch
