The Hawk Dining Room 8:17pm
Tonight I see
a rainbow
complete
over The Atlantic Ocean
& Tonight I question
the wonder of My Halo
seen again Today
for forty minutes
of intensity, distraction
& sacredness
of Human Vision
The Hawk Corner Room 8:17am
Is that a dramatic bank of fog
or illuminated low-lying cloud
out across My Calm Horizon?
It tapers off
to the south
is thickest to the north
& how I wonder
what weather
it has in store
The Hawk Corner Room 3:53pm
I was That Pouty Child
stomping Her Left Foot
when She couldn’t see
G-O-D written in The Sky
–
Forty-five years later I am
looking at The Clouds
billowing behind streams of flurries
out over The Ocean
when the notion of God
is no longer literal
