The Fallen
“The Fallen”
Remote,
he sees himself
in the reflection of cold close
yet distant shop windows,
his final journey along the
Hard Time Road
walking alone,
unforgiven, no home
for the rest of his natural life
a million knives...

Mating of the Rich and Famous
I once walked into my backyard
and found two slugs mating in a bucket
I had just learned how slugs go about mating,
or trust-I would have been rightly confused
Here hangs a long line of slime, almost...

The Apocrypha of Familiars
“The Apocrypha of Familiars”
Wings hover
light luminescent
revelling sprites dark pearls
Corvidae shades
of a family
highly functioning
dysfunctional plural
morphing unobserved
perceived non-unique
spiralling into shape
more black and grey
than white spills
from their eyes
light from their shining
hidden away
intelligence...

The Birds
I looked out the window, what a sight.
A Cocky a crow, a Magpie all sitting on the bench looking towards me.
Suddenly the Cocky squawked what sounded like ' what you doing?'

Silence
I’ve dreamt often that she crept deep
Into my cellular structure,
Some time in the nightfall of my being
And planted deeply into my mitochondrion,
A magical silence pill,
Drowning the kittens of...

Green Spanish Eyes - Part 2
Continued from Part 1
Ah Consuela! I’m watching the vertigo veiling her green Spanish eyes,
while the drumbeat pounds, droning, the rhythm sounds, moaning,
of jungles Jamaican entwined
in the valleys concealing the vineyards revealing
the vaults in...

Green Spanish Eyes - Part 1
Ah Consuela! Invoking vast vistas for visions of green Spanish eyes,
I discern them again where she left me back then,
as we kissed when she parted, my friend.
Through those ruins I tread towards the footlights,...

Big Washoe, 2010 Plus Six, Plus Seven
———
2016,
Sheep.
Magpie.
Mule deer.
Mustang, colt, mustang...upon the ridge.
Eagle's nest, bald.
Oreo cows, in far field.
Running baby cows.
Sheep.
Felled branch...100 mph winds.
Controlled burn, left quiet;
but not, as it turned out,
without embers enough
to catch to flames
and race up the Sierra,
down the...

The Chalice of Murdered Crows
"The Chalice of Murdered Crows"
How many moonbeams
would it take to overflow
my chalice bathe me naked
dew kissed diamond glistening
bare skin freedom feet seeking
my missing, slow dancing lover’s athamé
How many sunbeams
would it take to burn

Over the Edge, Four Flights Up

I opened the rusted iron gateway
bound in chain and wire, to find a landing
caked in muddied footprints, scattered about like roaches
Magpie shadows course the rain soaked streets
and puddle patterns reflect temptation as light flickers

The Careful Dissemination of Funds
I hear their idle chatter and wish that sound was optional.
A box checked in a menu, a simple click and forget.
The rapid dilation of my pupils brings me back.
Back to hypnotic aisles of temptation and...

The Maid, the Magpie and the Mirror
Gazing, at its own reflection is the Magpie.
A magic bird, a mystical creature, with a soul
and the power to see things, the power of scrying.
It sees a tomb in ancient Egypt. It sees death.
A soul...

Our World Without Colour - Remastered
Classic silent films
Redundant technicolour

Panther and snow leopard duelling with chess
Under a scintillating firmament
A dome of diamonds floating on infinity
Moonlight softly slicing the shadows
Illuminating their world of concentration
Alternating attrition
Pawn takes pawn
Bishop takes pawn
Rook takes...

Pie Anyone
Don’t often see him
7/8 asleep
But I’m sometimes surprised
Brushing my feet
Purring and arching
And pushing up high
Ecstasy shows in a half closed eye
Black white and furry
Real smooth to the touch
But not really keen on fussing that much
So...

The Art of Loving You
Monet
Come with me, let us rekindle love –
walk with me over bridges aglow
while rivers magically glisten below.
If you hold my hand,
perhaps, we might spy a magpie
perched from a snowy sky and as night
stirs, then...
