Higgledy-piggledy

Magpie Tales image


They all’ve survived the seasons
stuck in the walls
escaped
faces, smile, laugh…

-         the sweet ‘squeak’ –
surrounds my morning nap
a dream
quits when I open eye…

-         do take ‘NO’ for answer –
reform, retreat, retweet…

-         don't try to fill all shelves
at once, -
pause, rest your mind,
enjoy long walk, awaited
warmth boost
the seventy, eighty degrees
feels like was promised…
last longer…

I cry. I dry my eyes. I try to used
to new glasses, not pink anymore
dark frame, a focus on circles
with absorbed liquid

-         moisturize -
the need for dry climate here,
at North

I pick up any dust fell from
cleaning  the chakras…
-       dissolve, shower, start over -

but unable to make
the puzzle pieces meet…

-         substitute for alike -
the edges don't fit!

together
we hit the target
intend
the different things.

A survey: they want to know
if we satisfied with the treats…
Let’s ask the fluttering
mates pigeons -
they're working full time
created inspiring report!

  3. It has taken me several readings to get the (mixed) messages, but in the end I got there. The pigeons have the answer: life can be anything you want it to be.

  5. I also had some difficulty with understanding what is here, I seemed to grasp a bit and then lose it again.

  7. Dust in the chakras seem to be quite something... I read confusion .. and certainly the flutter of pigeons can be like that.. well use of the words... and yes it fitted the magpie picture (BTW pigeons and magpies can be vicious enemies I think)

  14. How much like real life this is where the puzzle pieces don't meet. How human it is to cling on to the past searching for the truth when even the pigeons are wiser than that or are they?
