FAIRY WAR ?



the
summer sun 
sinks again
behind the 
tv sky
and
shines goodbye beams
on 
garden-hose water
shooting out 
the sprinkler 
like strobes -
shines it
into
rainbow sparks
from
soft welding

or 

into 
a shower of 
baby laser beams
like
the fairies
are playing
Star Wars 
in among 
the rose bushes
and
lavender

i hope 
theyre playing - 
maybe there
is
trouble / maybe
tooth territory 
is under dispute . . .

Nature - pretty as a picture
reassuring as
washing nodding 
on the tilted
rotary line

but 
Underneath - 
a Black Flipside
we
rarely
notice
