Green parrot on a high branch preening--
what does it mean? what does it mean?
got
Diego Rivera's Nude with Calla Lillies
and twisting back the Spanish
all i see is Alcatraces
and lilies are Alcatraz
and where are the connections
my synapses leaping grasping
for twigs of

Bird. Alcatraz was the name of a bird
long long ago. Bird man of Alcatraz
of the lilies
of trying to escape

reality prisons/

a feather
a... AND DO YOU SEE It then here's Robbins talking
bout his parrot in Golden pyramid
and i hear echo angelou
why the Caged bird sings
and synapses get all happy free sorta singy now
cuz all
Parrot can say is "Relax"

    oh cassia, oh cassia


    sitting here half budda stylee cuz a full lotus would make my insides choke on themselves.... yes even me gets too close sometimes... you should come back and tell us what the parrot's squawking now in your-oh-so-full-budda stylee, cuz there are echoes of a woman in all those pretty words, a woman gone to beaches, lakes, rivers sides ~ a woman who eyed the world and put it down full blown conjunction junction what's your function pickin up clauses and phrases and such and what

    ways

    and it was fun, like putting together puzzles to decryptify some puzzle that put together looked like a picture of a puzzle not put together~and if i stood over it and made my eyes go fuzzy~there lay beautiful black and white photographs of oranges and tangerines

    peach and love

    me
    ~all is full of love~
