THE GRIGION PIGRACKLE
THE GRIGION PIGRACKLE
As I walked toward the train station, my mind fluttered over many thoughts.
Ignore them. Ignore them all, I thought. They are merely notes etched into the
'SECOND SCREEN' notepad in the back of my head.
Life exists right here. Right now.
I observe my surroundings. Always.
I live right here right now.
....And so, witnessing the world , as I passed by the TACO CABANNA

HOT FEATHERED TANGOS (2-14-2003, Valentine's Day, San Miguel de Allende, Mexico)
horny male pigeons
in mating season
frantically scurry
around their intended
feathered female
procreative pigeon prey
spreading their
iridescently colored
tail fans
out and down
feather tips
angled
to the ground
as they dance
spin
and sweep around
in repetitious figure eights
and quick step
rapid cooing circles
in hopes of
winning over ...

Acquaintances
I had wanted us to be friends,
But we were merely acquaintances,
These birds that no longer called or come by.
Some thirty years ago when we first bought
The homeplace on a small farm
I would talk to Bobwhite quail with whistles mimicking his name,
Enticing a visit or to keep the conversation going.
But he was only willing to come as far as the wood line,
Where he remained a shadowy figure,
Preferring to talk from his side of an invisible fence
With me across the yard on the other.
Some say that loss of habitat due to farmland ...

mockingbird song
To kill a mockingbird is to destroy innocence—innocence
injured or ruined through contact with evil.
sincere, she sings her mocking song,
perched on a wayward branch;
songs that to other birds belong
she copyrights carte blanche.
orchestral suites of flutes and strings
and horns and piccolos:
the music this imposter...

Sing Louder. Buy cheaper.
I bought myself a new solar panel
to try to save the world.
It said, 'Made in China' on it.
Probably produced in a coal powered
solar panel factory
But it was cheap, and convenient.
I didn't sleep well last night
The road traffic kept me awake.
The birds must have a similar problem.
Do they now sing louder to each other?

5am Blues
Seagulls rile me around 5am
And I've just begun to fall asleep
Its early or late depending on your thoughts
For me I've only begun to count sheep...
Bloody Sun's penetrating a crack in the blinds
Now my room is illuminated
So I'm pulling the duvet over my head
Not slept a wink, so now I'm frustrated!
Fuck it! I'm gonna get up now!
Thats just gone 6 o clock
Holly is niggling at me too for fuck sake
Poor dog needs out for a walk...
But me I'm still half asleep
My brain is telling my legs to go to fuck
Its not easy but...

God's LONG Range Plan For Mankind
I was visiting a church in Orlando FLA back in 2017. The pastor was having a question and answer period with the congregation. Somebody asked, "What is God's long range plan for mankind??" The pastor answered that (1)after the Second Coming, there'll be (2) the 1000 year Millennium. Which climaxes with (3) the "New Heaven/ New Earth," which is simply the renewal of the present Earth and the atmosphere around it. So what is God's Plan for Mankind from that point onward, according to this pastor ?? Well, he just spoke of holiness and fellowship with God. That was about it !! In other words the...

SCIENCE vs THE BIBLE
(Or General Revelation vs Special Revelation).
Most Christians think Christ came to take away sin, or "save sinners" like it says in 1 Timothy 1.15. But actually you can make the case that He came to father the Church, ie, the Christian community in order that it, the Church, would produce SCIENCE, aka "General Revelation," God's Revelation of Himself via Nature. By Nature, I mean the study of Nature. And what has the study of Nature become?? SCIENCE, of course. Just like if I say the Bible = Special Revelation, i mean the study of it. For to an illiterate, the Bible reveals...

Love Sans The ~Ness, is this [Love Absolute]~ A De(g/c)ree~ Less Bird Of Liberation Rewrites Self in Love Eternal
here, hear now pretty pettisome self:
enough is enough is enough is enough..
shall you cobble & cement up your

Flights of Fancy an A-Z Of British Birds
Arctic Skuas, fish wives beware,
steal from birds, without a care
Blackbirds, fond of hedgerows hewn,
known to whistle occasional tunes
Cuckoos. heralding spring sing loud,
beware the cuckoo land cloud!
Doves, duck with a divers ease,
traditionally symbolise beautiful peace
Eagles, immortal, courageous and bold,
eagle-eyed, with a plumage of gold
Flycatchers, search flies in flight,
swoop from perches, a feeding delight
Geese,...

~The Mindbird... In A Musical Liberational Flight: LOVE
the holy namaz amplifies on loudspeakers
from the northern streets… & the temple
‘aarati’ bells of this eve.. perform in a relay nod
of multi~ round successions.. from the other
end of same street...
this Friday eve …is only as fervently atmospheric
to kindle your tuning in entrance of an, ‘Open Sesame’
Alibaba cave treasures.. as your corner lying small
mindbird (un)bundle…
that either chokes off to (self~) marooned parasitic grip…
or uncages...
from its rusting sepsis of a shipwrecked clutch... ...

~Rocks of Smokiness... Of Our Love Niagara

black kites
fly so phenomenally high in the skies... their knifing
threads in the continuous negotiating cut & steers of the wind
streams in a mix of turbulence & silence... & some sudden drawn
in blankness... of a quizzical inertness
(their such teaser sways... their
noses dive towards our static & eagerly upheld jaw dropping faces
in their fixations, that’s in a shallow touchdown tactical drops... only
quickly lifts it much impossibly higher &...
