ROADMAP

The Hawk Computer 10:22pm

Dear DVD:

THIS IS MY PREMISE —

Clarity of Vision

Clarity of Speech

Clarity of Action

WHAT’S YOURS?

 

I AM YOUR BLACK SWAN

The Tomato-coloured Couch 7:00pm

I Am Your Black Swan

flying off a nostalgic rooftop

into fields of civility —

My Feathers Ruffle

at The Strife of Humanity’s

changeover

from Man’s World — Man’s God

into

Woman’s

ALIEN MESSAGE

The Hawk West Desk Window 2:22pm

I have The Capacity

for Brilliance

for holding A Truth So Deep

Its revelation will not arise

at gunpoint

at loss of control

My Depth has Two Colours:

BLACK & PURPLE

My Radiance is Silver

shimmering information

for Our Human Place

known by ALL

RESET

The Hawk West Desk Window 10:55pm

We live in The Era Coming

where there is no such thing as “Mental Illness”

no need for Psychiatrists

They can go home

no need for catalogues, labels, DSM volumes

or medication (except for sleep)

We Are Human All

behaving as Humans

within Our vast array of possibility

Our Observations

are based on fundamental perception

and based on Our interpretation of perception

within Its vast array of possibility

GOOD NIGHT

 

 

ORION

The Hawk Kitchen 7:45pm

Tonight when I went out in The Dark

to scrape a dinner plate for The Crows

I heard the distinct honking of geese

somewhere below the constellation of Orion

— the only constellation I recognize

beside The Big Dipper —

Oh, I didn’t tell You —

a few days ago — no, December 22nd —

I met one of the nurses from The Psych Unit

in the bakery section of MY Sobey’s

— it was One Who doled out bedtime pills —

She could barely say hello

I LOVE

The Hawk Kitchen 9:00pm

I sat or paced

in that place of unfavourable recollection

where My First Husband

tried to feed Me a sandwich

telling Me I couldn’t come home

until “this idea” was out

of My Mind —

This I dead Idea

evolved from that hell hole

to My Freedom of Writing

fifteen or twenty years

away from confinement

& starvation

I am able to write

I LOVE

2012 in review

The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2012 annual report for this blog.

Here’s an excerpt:

600 people reached the top of Mt. Everest in 2012. This blog got about 4,100 views in 2012. If every person who reached the top of Mt. Everest viewed this blog, it would have taken 7 years to get that many views.

ON TOPIC

The Hawk Kitchen 5:55pm

I stirred The Cinnamon

into My Eggnog

& even though I don’t celebrate

Christmas

I saw The Stars churning

off The Galaxy Edges

I felt The Funnel of Hope

invigorate

My Despondency

I drank The Drink

of My New Declaration:

The Minds of Men, Women & Children

The World Over

will succeed

in leading us away

from Dystopia
