MORNING OUTPOST

The Hawk Kitchen 8:07am

The Vibrancy of Silver

is awash across the water

filling My Kitchen

with bright rays of light

I wait for the coffee to steep

to write of My Days

here in the quiet

of My Sufficient Sleep

MY BIRTHDAY

The Hawk Queen Bed 8:15am

The Shock of Silver

is with Me still

when I see

a band across The Sea

I think of My March 31st

Shower

22 years ago

& how It’s brought Me

to Sanctuary

SILVER REPORT

The Hawk Kitchen Outpost 9:46am

along The Grey Horizon

I see a single streak

of Silver

behind Our Neighbour’s

leafless tree

with the gradual motion

of linear clouds

My Line gets washed away

then reforms

to complete

My Fullest View

LIVING WATER

The Tomato-coloured Couch 1:50pm

“I Tried To Get To You”*

Who Do You Think

Showered You with Silver Lights?

Who Do You Think

Provided You with Your Own

Private God

on Your Right Shoulder?

Who Do You Think

has Furnished You with Your Life

You Love So Much

You Don’t Want To Die?

*Ian Curtis of Joy Division

A SINGLE SILVER STAR

The Hawk Kitchen 6:28pm

A Single Silver Star

just cascaded

across My Left-field

Vision

as I considered

an array of crumbs

gathered up into My Hands

& swept with both

down the sink

hole

WELCOME ME

The Tomato-coloured Couch 2:22pm

Shower Me

with

Silver

&

I will tell You

All My Secrets

I can answer

any Question

I can see

with X-ray Vision

You Will Know Me

for All I Am

You Will Know

that I Am

Everything

&

You will want Me

Home

MARCH 31st 2015

March 30th The Hawk Kitchen 6:17pm

I Will Shine

In Those Flashing Lights

Against A Background

Of Chaos

March 31st 2015 The Hawk Kitchen 8:25am

There is My Silver

Message!

Streaking Its Light

to Me on My Morning

of This, The 22nd

Anniversary

of My Shower of Silver Lights

I AM ONE

STABLIZATION

The Hawk Library 12:16pm

Eye have M(eye) Shower

— Show Her —

of Flashing Silver

formalized

in the reflection off

M(eye) Husband’s book cases

engulfing

The Machine

upon Which Eye row

M(eye) Millions

MY ORACLE

The Tomato-coloured Couch 12:50pm

It started in The Shower

last fall

against the white

bathroom stall

& then I started seeing

It against the white

dishwasher in My Kitchen

I even carried It

into Sobey’s

one night while Hunter

waited in the car

I saw It again last night

& watched It circle My Head

in The Mirror of My All

I AM HERE

February 14th, The Hawk Queen Bed 11:30pm

My Halo is My Tiara

pressed from the finest Silver

filigree

encrusted with diamonds

dripping with pearls

like Princess Di’s

I’m tide to It

now — It has become

My Sign

My Signature
