MY SKY

My Sky is trying It’s damnedest

to calm Me down from reading

Bloomberg’s endorsement of Obama

— citing climate change —

My Sky Clouds are Silver in The East

& carry One Magnificent Sunset

in The West —

I am eternally thankful for My Beautiful Sky

& nobody’s gonna mess with It —

GET IT?

One Silver Spiral Bangle From Her Other

THE HAWK WEST DESK WINDOW 1:11pm

My Big Black Super Cat Astro

is sprung from My Right Shoulder

like The Head of The Beautiful Dark Haired Woman

Who told Me nineteen years ago Today

in The Most Melodious Voice

I had ever heard:

“You Know The Meaning Of Life

& So You Are A Star —

so go to sleep”

THE HAWK WEST DESK WINDOW 12:45pm

You knew I would write

something festering

for today

I’m dressed like The Athletic Witch that I am:

black kicks, black capris. black underwear

grey knit zip-up running top

white bra, white socks

with two loads of laundry out on the line

first Dark, then Light

and I Got My Period

THE HAWK KITCHEN 6:10pm

My Cat Astro

I Love So Much

hissed at Me today

when I manhandled Him

onto My Lap

I’ve never heard Him hiss before —

I will never treat Him

so brusquely again

I might get a tattoo

“PROLIFE”

on My Forehead —

of course I want The Cows to be happy

& The Rancher’s Mink to be beautiful

handled humanely

but We’ve got to have The Line

between Human

& Animal

THE HAWK FAMILY ROOM 2:22pm

I once stood before a window screened

with hardware cloth

in an institution

of not My Choosing

from an upper storey

I stood there as if

before a microphone

I called out

to imaginary Children below

to save Them from the water’s edge

to save The Gulls from extinction

QUESTIONS FROM THE TOMATO-COLOURED COUCH 8:15pm

What is The Necessity of an “Accident?”

If That Asteroid

hadn’t wiped out The Dinosaurs

65 million years ago

would Humanity

as We Know It

be crawling The Earth

Today?

Could this Progression happen Elsewhere?

FORTIFICATION

The Hawk Portico 5:24pm

The Waves are brusque tonight

& the sky is grey

I’m on My Second Beer

after a day of recovering from “My Spell”

in-which I lost My Decisiveness

& other people had to plan for Me

I am not altogether comfortable in These States

luckily They don’t happen often

but They can & do

in the unlikeliest of places

like Sobey’s

or some other zoo

I freeze up

not knowing what to think

or My Thinking’s Hung

temporarily shut down —

the only fortification I respond to

is the Kindness of Others

& I have always been met with Kindness

“GOOD MORNING, WORLD!”

and to the rest of you

that are still asleep —
This Is Your Mother
Speaking:

It’s Time To Go To School
and I mean
REAL SCHOOL —

It’s Time To Go
BACK to Your
Kitchens, Women, &
cook for Your
decreasing Families,

It’s Time, Children, To Get On
The Bus of Human Intelligence
for Our Fight:

The Fight of Our Lives

as Human Beings on
This Planet —
for That is
All We Are — We
are Human &
We are God —

& We Cannot Continue
as We have been
for however many
thousands or millions of
years.

This is Your MOTHER
SPEAKING — CRYING
For You, My Children,
to Stop Killing
Yourselves
through Your Own
desperation, &
stupidity —

I Love You All
Dearly
& without You I
would
Die!”

“WAKE UP WORLD &
smell The Coffee —
drink that Tim Horton’s
& Think of Me.

Watch This Television
until You are Blue
in The Face,
which is MY
FACE  —

You have desecrated
Me with
Your naivety, Your
revulsion & Mine,
for You & Me &
Now —
I can no longer look
My Self in The Face
& Smile

Because of YOU

(red star, red star)

October 1st, 2010 THE HAWK

continued from Diary:

I AM THE RED STAR —

I AM THE ALERT BUTTON
on Your Car
remote

Listen to Me — You are
All I Have Left
here,

& here is the Only Place
We know of

which sustains us, somewhat,

& which sustains Me,

Your Guiding Star

Your Furious Mother —

and Who was My Furious

Mother, You may ask?

She is Dead Now & Somewhere

out There, Haunting Me

as I am aiming now to

Haunt You,

& Haunt You I Will,

Until You Turn Around,

with The Earth,

with The Light of Our

Yellow Star —

Soon To Turn Red.

I am speaking to You from

This Black Box, This Hole

But I Can See You,

like The Romper Room Lady —

I am Magic, if You

believe in Magic

— and I feel You must

believe in Something —

There is The Divine, for

I have felt Its Wrath —

There is God, for I have

been beaten down by Him,

now, into this heaving mass

of Human Organism

which rises up before You,

to Speak to You

from The Device I Loathe:

The Device of Corruption, Greed,

Sloth, & Desire.

Yes, I Desire You,

I Desire That You Wake Up

to Hear Me, That You

Wake Up to Feel Me, For

What Am I To You But

All That Is Left of

possible salvation?

I am Your Mother & My

Mother before Me, & Her Mother,

& My Father’s Mother & Her

Mother — I AM ALL MOTHERS

I Speak For The Salvation

of The Children of God

WHO MUST NOW, FINALLY,

GROW UP

INNATE INTELLIGENCE

The Hawk Deck 2:15pm

I have been oppressed

by My Free-wheeling Notion of God

I have overlooked

My Innate Intelligence

as It compares to “The Divine”

Yes I saw a Shower Of Lights

proving the existence of “God”

to Me

but I have been haunted still

by questions raised

from This Supreme Experience
