They whirl and swirl and dive But do they? The no see ‘ems, You can’t see ‘em but you can feel them there Cavorting and frolicking, invisible in the air A dinner time dance, gluttonous splurge You’ll know all about their evening soirée When you discover the main course is … You.

Invisible dinner time
Spring time morning sun Warming my back, I got lost in the pages of hello poetry A gargoyle perched on a step Unmoving, hesitantly... statuesque A northern mockingbird took rest on my foot A moments respite from beating wing And gravity defying flight My poor heart jumped at his sudden touch And my foot ****** up and away Those unexpected scratchings My coffee cup flying The mockingbird was no better All grace and glide destroyed Frantic scrabble of feathered pinions Escape from this simulacrum come to life. Now, From his new purchase he examines me Suspicious eyes, blaming. An oddity such as me. And I him. Needless to say, we both barely survived the encounter.
