the animal grief
twas the sight
at hundred ten k an hour
the whole moment
from approach
to passing
over
in a blink
the roadkill
its mate
lay half mashed
the pink and grey plume
quite a contrast
to the drab
dark of the asphalt
the partner
seen running
towards the body
pushing, cajoling with its beak
like a spouse in shock
no different to a human
it would trot away
at the approach of
another...

mockingbird
Killing a mockingbird serves no purpose, and
therefore is an act of unnecessary cruelty.
no mock make of the mockingbird
no muck make of his mettle
his repertoire the hearts have stirred
of men where’re they settle
a song for every season throats
the air both night and noonday
its summer bugles far remote
from winter’s opportune-day
to kill a mockingbird is sin
for heaven hath no reason
to rape the harmless violin
that breathes no threat of treason
defend his habitat he will
when threatened...
therefore is an act of unnecessary cruelty.
no mock make of the mockingbird

looking out of the window ..
watching the robin splash around
in the bird bath in the garden whilst it's raining
I smash a plate and a cup whilst washing up in the kitchen
but hey, it's exciting ..

The City, The Forest and Other Bird Songs
( after Mary Oliver )
It is everywhere—
the echo
overlapping upon itself
as the sweet, lilting
songs of birds
in the
stiff, stately pines
standing thick,
dark and tall
between, among
the bleached high-rises,
their sterile glass eyes blink
from early shifting light
in the nip of dawn,
suddenly begin to herald
the new day—
and, with the vocal trills
lifting up from the
council of trees,
the span of a
disgruntled owl emerges,
leaving me
quelled of speech, ...

The Little Troubles of Shark 'Infested' Waters

If'n I coulda been any-body, per
haps
I coulda been Me, but six+ decades
have
freight-trained by, and I don't know my ass from a
hole
in the soul. Y'gotta see the humor in such folly,
lest
ye succumb to the all-to-common Delusion of
Self.
Taken seriously, there's a goodly dose of
long
acting toxin in...

Doggyy'boy Dan,

LOVE’S a tenseless sapience, spirals in as concrete NOW of a daily existential reeling realm's dream dejavu
I i n h a l e you.....
in each finely enmeshing deep breaths
from my serially sizzly popping in, the
starry burning foresting micro-embers
holy smoking vanakkam charcoal lungs
in a yogic metamorphosing transcendence
when the fecking all and nil
of such a grandly elevating
coital coalescing atmospheric
becomes
(y)our wholesome incensing expanse
as spread out singing sigmoidal skies
filters off
its darkly whirling clouded cocktail dusts...

Would Issa
( a rensaku = linked tanka )
🍂
a cooler morning—
I await the chime of leaves
that rustle and fall
but birds have all left to find
nests made of grateful leaves
🍂
the season is ill—
the sun is facing away
do I only see,
setting out a water bowl
for a stray cat with no voice
🍂

Stavebindende måker
Av Stanley Collymore
Hei! Hvorfor er du spottende, ondskapsfull og snarere
kaster stein på hver og en måke hvis ufarlig og
naturlig tilstedeværelse du skjønner og
ganske gjenkjennelig og uberettiget
vil skade? Så Jeg bruker ordet
naturlig her, ikke bare i det generalisert og normalt
anerkjent form men også på sin nøyaktige og
omfattende måte kjent etymologisk. For
disse måker er ikke bare kystlinje
beboere på passende måte det
meste av et vidtgående
sjøfarende omgivelser, det er de
også eldgamle etablert urfolk ...

Spellbinding Seagulls
By Stanley Collymore
Hey! Why are you spitefully, malevolently and rather
antagonistically throwing stones at each and every
seagull whose harmless and natural presence
you discern and quite recognizably and
unwarrantedly want to harm? So
I’m using the word natural here not only in its
generalized and normally recognized form
but also in its accurate and extensively
known etymological one. For these
seagulls are not merely coastline
dwellers appropriately making
the most of an wide-ranging
seafaring setting,...
