SPLIT ROCK SIT

The Death Throes of a House

Fly

are very scary indeed —

I picked One up to make

It Die

in My Hand

to Me —

It

did not die —

It wrinkled free

and so I put Him

Down —

I placed Him —

legs — limp with Death

in the corner

of M(EYE)

FROWN

I THOUGHT HE WAS DEAD

The Hawk Deck 11:11am

I unintentionally saved

a fly

dangling by one wing

from a frayed spider web

over My Kitchen Sink —

I thought He was dead —

I got out the dust mop

merely to sweep Him out

of My View

He stuck to the mop

I stuck My Index Finger

against His Re-instated Body

& He flew away

COLONIES

The Hawk Exercise Room Window 10:47am

Today before My Row

I opened the Hawk Exercise Room Window

finding two galactic

Spider Hatchings

— gold They are —

I am with Them

after My Row

One on the outside of the little screen

One on the inside

MOTH ALIEN?

The Hawk Queen Bed 8:22am

Last Night I saw

a clothing moth

trying to get My Attention

in Eliza’s room

as I sat to write —

I tried to slap it between

My Hands

but failed

& woke this morning

with a moth ball dilemma:

I do not want to stink up

Eliza’s tiny room

especially as I

sleep there

DETERMINISM

The Hawk Kitchen Outpost 1:34pm

Seeing M(EYE) Halo

I Killed A Flying Insect —

Was I Wrong Or Right?

NEWS FLASH

The Hawk Computer 6:04 pm

My Husband, Dr William Hunter Blair, now believes

that My World Trade Center Roof Top Painting from 1984

titled Self Organizing Galaxy

may have given someone the idea

for 9/11

TRANSLUCENCY

The Hawk Kitchen Outpost 7:22pm

Lime-green bug

in Your See-thru wings

when first I saw Your Underside

You were pale yellow

against My Window —

I went outside

to touch You very carefully —

You took to My Hand

& flew

FROM MAGGOT TO SENSATIONALISM

The Hawk Kitchen Outpost 6:22pm

I found A Fly, dead

but He was Bottle Blue

too beautiful to throw outside

but I had to

I could not have Him

on display

on My Kitchen Window Sill

with My Blue Bottle

Pouring Sculpture

for which I paid

$180.00

or could I?
