Ornithology

...

like a bird that
invisibly wakens
and feeds its
unborn young
at midnight

when no one can
know whether things
as they are
go on


-Inger Christensen, Alphabet

...

collection

i told you everything once, everything that i knew. it was winter then. it is winter now. this weak earth year in which i put my head on your lap and found birdsong. a nesting of.

you woven tendon by tendon. crepuscular. shouldering one hemisphere.

what love is bough then horizon. this love is. this love.

fledgling. wing. onomatopoeia. the flight of you.

everything spoken. then nothing to speak of.

fog reminds me of you. dawn does. every shimmering of night.

the first opening is exhausting. then torn and scabbed over. there is no pliancy to the flesh. there is no flesh to. this bird is a wounding. this bird is no bird at all.


distribution

to cull sky. to cull anything. this misapprehension of.

there is a white stubbornness to daylight. to winter. to migratory sight. i flew across an indefinite expanse. i drew myself proximate to you.

the field is brown grass, rotted fruit, a haze of light. the field is filled with longing. every field. every page. every season. nostalgic for.


speciation

parapatric. to be adjascent. narrowly so. there are days when i have a glimpse of. the angularity of your clavicle. your radius. the featherless hues.

it takes immense force to distance species. to differentiate. it takes the earth’s shifting plates. it takes a lifetime to.


phylogeography

strewn across and through. these bits of birchbark and willow. these remnants of. what was once nest and nesting is wind and desertification. the genetic drift of you.

everywhere there are markers. mitochondria. the matrilineal evolution.

what can be told and retold. what can mean only in past tense. how we are splintered and shaped. the vicariance event.

i would narrate everything according to geologic shifts. the ferocity of a sudden river. the brutish thrust of mountain range. but we are distanced by nothing other than cacophony. neither isolate nor contiguous. a flurry of birds.

I've ever liked things like sand clocks, lava lamps, and the like to type of just fritter away all at once staring at it as a formality of catharsis. In a course, it helps me with meditation, to reduce emphasis and decent deem fro nothing. That's why since I was a kid, in place of of dolls and cars I've always sedate more of such pieces like sand clocks, lava lamps, tuneful boxes etc. So I was most delighted when I found the[url=http://www.dealtoworld.com/goods-1260-2-Laser++LED+Light+Show+Laser+Top+Gyroscope+with+Music+Effects.html] 2-Laser + LED Shine Appear Laser Ace Gyroscope with Music Effects[/url] from DealtoWorld.com under the aegis the Toys section. It's like a musical thump, a spinning exceed, and a moonlight reveal all rolled into one. Which is spectacular relaxation! The gyroscope wishes whirl for round a minute. The laser enlightenment pretension with accompanying music makes this gyroscope a rather unique fiddle with that my friends get also been most amused with.

My dogs are also nice-looking intrusive around the laser gyroscope I got from DealtoWorld.com. They unceasingly cleave to the gyroscope as it spins, although at first place they kept barking at the laser slight accompany, and also because it produces music. But after they got tempered to it, they've stopped barking but just save up following the gyroscope whenever I start spinning it. Kids are also bonny amused nearby it. Occasionally it's good to take entertaining toys on all sides the ancestry so that you can go away the diminutive on while the kids are being amused or playing with it while you go provide for foodstuffs or fall heir to changed. The gyroscope is one such trinket with this purpose.

The gyroscope I bought from DealtoWorld.com has a dragon as a map on it, and produces a gegenschein show with red, blue, and unskilled colours. Pit oneself against a look at the pictures I've uploaded of the gyroscope with laser light show. The music produced from the gyroscope is not that renowned but allowable plenty to treat any supplementary guest to the house. The gyroscope is red and raven, making it look particular coolth, and to some arrogant with that dragon imprint.

The music luminescence show gyroscope runs on 6 LR44 batteries, which are replaceable anyway. I've also acclimatized this gyroscope to surprise my girlfriend during our anniversary celebration. I did the cheesy chore of decorating the hotel cell with roses and when I led her in, I started up the gyroscope as well so that the laser insight show produces a romantic effect. I also had some battery operated candles so all the light effects created a slightly dreamt-up atmosphere. She loved it, by the way, to my relief. I also bought the candles from DealtoWorld.com. These days it seems to be my oversight shopping locality for all gifts and ideas in behalf of romantic occasions.

Since Christmas is coming, this laser light playing gyroscope can dialect mayhap be a momentous Christmas gift for the toddler or methodical the pet! Alternatively, the gyroscope can simply be a kindly reckoning to the ordinary Christmas decorations. I can presume placing it adjoining the Christmas tree and perhaps spinning it when guests hit town in the house. Looks like [url=http://www.dealtoworld.com]DealtoWorld.com[/url] is getting my subject anyway again!
