THE SENTINEL

The Hawk Deck 10:06am

I Am Guarding My Ocean

I Am Watching For Birds

To Record Their Song

Accompanying Each Moment

Of Scenic Bliss

A Dog Barks, A Neighbour Calls

To Another

While I Sit

In My Red Deck Chair

Taking Stock

CLARITY

The Hawk Deck 9:17am

The Air Has Cleared Here

The Ocean Dazzles My Brain

I Am Up For The Morning

In What Feels Like Early Fall

I Am Leaving Behind

Every Past Anxiety

Looking Forward To The New Aerial View

Of This Planet

Upon Which

I Thankfully Reside

I AM A BABY

The Hawk Queen Bed 6:30pm

I Am A Baby

In A Bassinet On A Beach

How Many Of Us Have Been Born On The Surging Crest?

How Many Of Us Will Die Upon The Ebb?

I Am Rocked To Sleep

By The Rhythm

I Am Awakened

To My Infancy

NEXT?

The Tomato-coloured Couch 1:52pm

I Am The Silver Bullet

Circling This Globe

Spermatozoan

In My Femininity

THE LAST PAGE

The Tomato-coloured Couch 4:40pm

My Fame Will Be

This World’s

Freedom

When I Am Found Out

Inside & Out

We Will No Longer

Believe

In Schizophrenia

Bi-polar

& Other Multitudinous

“Psychiatric Illnesses”

Silver Will Sky-rocket

Gold Will

Linger In Its

Old-fashioned Luster

Man & Woman Will Live Together

Unrivalled

THE UNIVERSE CAN’T WAIT

The Hawk West Desk Window 10:55am

I am here to demonstrate

The Massive Capacity

of Our Human Intellect

born out of turmoil & strife

histories of flood & famine

long lines of creativity & invention

religious conflict

Out of All This Rises

A New Awareness

of

The Sacred Self

The Emergence

of

Our

New

World

View

FEMININE FORMAT

The Tomato-coloured Couch 5:00pm

I Am Waiting

For The Impregnation

Of My Idea

For My Concept

To Be Opened Up

Sunk Into

& Savoured

For All Its Worth

I AM A RELIGIOUS PERSON

The Tomato-coloured Couch 5:30pm

I Have Been Sent

By My Spirit

To This Time

This Place

For The Acquisition

Of A Proper

Life

Of Heady Happiness

Deep Mourning

& The Exclamation

Of Perfection

In All Things

WORTH

The Tomato-coloured Couch 4:00pm

I stand in a shaft of sun

drinking from My Silver-frosted

Chalice of Life

I stop to look

at just what I am

consuming

I see The Earth

The Potency of Life

quivering

in My Well-oiled

Grip

WHEN I DRINK

The Hawk Deck 12:22pm

When I Drink Water

From My Chalice Of Life

I See The Bottom

Of My Glass

As A Fertilized Egg

Cradled

By My Little Finger
