The Hawk Queen Bed 7:36pm
I watched a crow peck
the remaining shepherd’s pie
from last night’s supper
The Tomato-coloured Couch 4:38pm
A Brown-headed Cow Bird
has taken a fancy to My Car Mirror —
with binoculars from My Upstairs Window
I watched Him preen
in front of His Reflection
for minutes elapsing
until He crapped
and a cat
scared Him away
The Hawk West Desk Window 11:15am
EYE am Star Collector
X-traodinaire
EYE stick Their molten surfaces
to M(EYE) finger tips
and drop Them into
Their Little White Star Box
housing M(EYE) Ring
of Shimmering Rose Design
The Hawk Kitchen Outpost 9:44am
The Shimmering
The Shimmering —
how can I write enough?
The Dazzle has Me caught
in The Sublime
of My Place
My View
My Completeness
The Hawk West Desk Window 8:45pm
I can watch The Sun go down
in The West
over prehistoric islands
then I can watch It rise
in The East
over My Favourite
Ocean
The Tomato-coloured Couch 3:54pm
Yesterday I scared a cat
at Eva’s House
with My Grey Gardens Sun Hat
still on My Head
I walked through the kitchen
and poor Kitty Kitty
freaked out —
Her Tail got fat
and she tore out
stopping to stare
in disbelief
The Hawk Kitchen Outpost 2:15pm
I saw a black-headed Grackle
atop My Scraggly Apple
as I put together
a shepherd’s pie
and stopped
to watch
His Darkness
against The Sky
The Hawk Deck 9:11am
Each sunny morning
now in The Spring
I take My Banana
to The North East Corner
of Our Property
to a bank
where I dumped My Dead X-Miss Tree
& toss The Peel
below My Feet
The Hawk Kitchen Outpost 7:57am
Silver reaches Me
gleaming off The Sea
into My brilliant little kitchen
Silver is My Foundation
from My Shower of Silver Lights
I have grown
into Its Representative
and I will carry samples
of Its Refinement
wherever I shall be
The Tomato-coloured Couch 8:16pm
EYE can lie around
M(EYE) House
like a cat
listening to the radio
and contemplating the art
veiled statues
while M(EYE) Husband
writes a long letter
to a former Lover
of M(EYE) Mother’s
Who knew Me
as The Child
