Prince of Pride
Prince of Pride
Winter one
You never flee the cold
But stay boldly on---
Dare the Hawk
into the
black days of December
Foolish sometimes
In his bravery
Lovely always
mirrors any man adored
Bird on a bender....
Strutting the fjord.
Brilliant blue unending
pearl kissed Head
Cocked in splendor
Starlit eyes
Flashing
Forward
moving
to a beat hop beat
unheard but to your love
swiftly now
a
jay-hop
at a time .
Eager nimble Eager
Sensuous
Flicking tail
Searching
Beat hop beat
Each
snow-step hop step
Woos his lover’s spring songs
Closer.
Snow
Eyes
Flutter
Fresh-snow blink flutter
Blink once
Blink-twice again
Flawless.
Bold and sexy.
Without a doubt--
Blue flame of sky
You
dare
with every
blue- brash
hop
Arctic
Cowboy
Sass
Dawn breaks
Waking spirits of the day
Through Black- branched Trees
the Sun shrieks
with
Magic
Icy Claws
Torches your
Jay
Bird head
with Tundra Magic
Shimmer Sun Shimmer
Sapphire Blue Shine
Cast a deadly shadow
Spin Shadow Spin
Spin Around the World
Magic of all Magic called by name
in Persia
A Mighty Monarch
Preening in a Peach Tree
in the
Heights of Glory
The Defiant
Prince of Peacocks
Pride his Hubris
Struck by magic
Tundra magic
Tumbles
Dying
Screeching
to the
Dirt
