The Guise of Blue Jay Skies
F l y i n g
a sailing tailwind
in cerulean streams
through creamsicle colored beams -
are wings reflective of turquoise truth
and white purity
of Autumn’s ether -
he aviates
a clear troposphere
riding an unbridled
capricious and combative
boreas
on the cusp

A Pirate JayOutside the fall is deep and new
Tangled branches on the trees
Are bare black but drifted white
Survivors of the wintry night,
Birds are perched by nature blended;
At intervals a few will fly.
A few will light...

a blue jay lookout screeches ~
swift bristling of crests

Beware the Mocking Jay~ Monotetra form ~
No man's eyes will ever conceive
the things another mind may weave
If this counsel you don't believe
You are naïve You are naïve
What lies behind a masked facade
is oft' unfit to praise and laud
Tread lightly when sipping pernod
Beware the fraud ...

How Jay-Bird Got His NameYoung James Pruitt was an ordinary boy;
he grew up in an ordinary town.
But set a spell, and I’ll tell a tale
of how some not-so-ordinary things went down.
See, James was a good boy; he did his chores,
he went to church, and he walked to school.
Jacksons’ Gap...

A stadium amp or a backwards cap
Any type of music makes me get out of my seat...

SunsetAlong the feathered edge,the red sun sets,
Birds go back to their home like jets.
Sunflower loses sight of sun,
Animals sing lullabye to their son.
Sunset makes the sky go pink,
Its the most beautiful sight you could ever think.
All the flowers close their petals,
It is as good as...
