5 WAYS OF WHISPERING TO A BLACKBIRD

It was evening all afternoon.
Once, a fear pierced him.
Icicles filled the long window
Do you not see how the blackbird
Of one of many .ircles.
Even the bawds of euphony
Or just aft。°r.
Was the eye of the blackbird.
The shadow of hi✸ equipage.

Chris Fleming has that tireless, peripatetic, associative, unhinged physical humor that so many of us absolutely adored in Robin Williams.

A delight. Silly, smutty, and smart in equal measure.

Good news but…
The unfortunate death in Lyon of a right wing activist was parleyed into political hay by the right and complicit media.
