WINTER SCAPE

The Hawk Kitchen 9:27am

I See Life Flicker

On This Coldest Of Mornings:

Birds Among Berries

THE GARLAND

The Hawk Dining Room 2:00pm

Last night Eliza strung A Garland

out of popcorn & dried orange circles —

She hung It over Our Dining Room Window

with Its view of sky & water

— I stood before It —

The Garland dipped at nose level

I smelled The Smell of Delicacy

I stood back to view

The Subtle Transparency

of One Curling Slice

angled against the clearing clouds

PETULANCE

The Hawk Queen Bed 9:18am

I am in A Black Mood

but there is Power in My Madness

for I can wield The Hand

of Time

I can carry out My Wish

of no sickness within the scope

of My Reality

I can make Black Magic

into Child’s Play

and conduct The Truth

through My Fingers

STAR POWER

The Hawk West Desk Window 9:34pm

Everyone was once A Molten Star

far away from Everything, but part

of A Churning Galaxy with Its Own Identity

A Uniqueness cast into Our Humanness

and when We Die, We Return

to The Eternal Cycle

and burn

SUN CONFIGURATION

The Tomato-coloured Couch 7:27pm

I have seen

The Golden Medallion

of The Sun

on The Underside

of an ice cream lid

as The Lid Of My Left Eye

twitched with Telepathic Love

& My Left Underside Of My Rib

pulsated, slowly, in Alert

STARLINGS

The Hawk West Desk Window 3:30pm

The Flock of Starlings careening

around Our House like schools of fish

during Eliza’s Arrival

settled on The Wires as She left

adding dimension to A Line

and a song to The Wind

MY PEOPLE

The Tomato-coloured Couch 6:22pm

I watched The Sun

born under a solid lip

of pink-streaked cloud

He arrived into This World

Radiant Red

while My Alien

squirmed inside

beneath My Lower Rib Cage

crying fiercely to Me

I AM ALIVE

PREPARED

The Tomato-coloured Couch 6:11pm

I am alone in My House

sitting before My 3-dimensional Flame

of glass, lit with a tea light

deep in Its Centre

like The Centre of Me

bright with caution

 

MORNING SKY

The Hawk Kitchen 8:52am

The Blue-grey Clouds

sitting low

over The Slate-grey Ocean

are My Call

to drink

from The Horizon

ALIEN LOVE

The Tomato-coloured Couch 5:30pm

My Alien is flaring up —

I think He is the embodiment

of My Estranged Love

— I felt Him, hard

hard against My Mid-drift

while My Daughter

put acetone on Her Toe Nails

& wrapped Them in tin foil

calling Them Her Space Toes

I felt Him, soft

soft against My Face

when I looked at The New Moon

& Evening Star
