Birds and Stone
Will I throw one for two
Chrips and flutters
are the only answer
One act
Rear my arm back
like a little boy
palm first
Can I throw all existence
and interrupt two jays who
chatter from a honeysuckle
bush – rush their thrust
for flight
Who knows one stone
Who knows two birds
Yes, the jays annoy
anyone who cares for
fairness, they’re trying
to get more than just
the seed they need
Could this be what God meant?
One for two
And where is Zero
The jays say zero is betwixt
one and two, us and you
My arm is locked & rocked
Two birds One stone
and the infinite space
between intent and act
Enough time for the big bang
and the formation of black
holes and the whole universe
to stop
Forever

gives me the mental image of a bluejay as a blackjack dealer in a casino.. stacked decks..
and a sense of loss and losing.
the infinite space between intent and act
Yes!
Aggravating blue jays!
Pensive possibility in the zero zone!
feel the same about bluejays but I love the sly comeback in what the jay says
