Maybe not flying back to the States on the 17th.
Oh and yeah, Happy Valentine’s Day from OZ
So today I went into the city
and I talked to a gallery owner about his establishment
Leaving, I made my way through Hyde Park
heard suffering shrieks and squawking crows peircing
pronouncing pain; calling the ringing of dinner bells
Under this tree I looked up to see an opossum there alive and unmoving
while crows pecked at it; gathered waiting for death
another young man was passing thru and he too heard the moans above
so we two of our own accord stopped and stared; in broken english he
said throw stones to scare off the birds, only no stones we found, simply sticks which
came off our our hands in misguided trajectories, several failed attempts
before he told me “there is nothing we can do. it is the cycle of nature.”
i understood, said goodbye and kept walking
across the park i sat to smoke, shortly joining me on my bench was a young woman
who placed herself at the far end. she looked despondent so i asked “how are you?”
no reply, so i sat her out, she left and as she left i saw the white cords from her ears
her own world thus i went on myself
to the toilet in the garden where I spent some time on the porcelain phone to God.
