Does the blackbird scuttle
Due to the sounds or the vibrations issued
By my feet heavily stepping on the flagstones
Or do my piercing eyes
Effectively order the bird to take cover
Beneath the winter bushes
Which are distinctly smothered in morning dew
Do you perceive more than I
Is there a morphic resonance
Which connects, outside of chance
Or coincidence; or am I simply lost
Is the date of the video being loaded
Any more significant than that of a birthday
Of course the experiments could be fake
But an academic taboo restricts disclosure
Instead to see you at the seashore
Where your consciousness expands
Out into a life within my life
A place where I am happy to welcome you
