BLUE BINARIES
{the blue jay (cyanocitta cristata)
is a noisy, bold and aggressive passerine. it is a moderately slow flier (roughly 32–40 km/h (20–25 mph)) when unprovoked. it flies with body and tail held level, with slow wing beats. due to its slow flying speeds, this species makes easy prey for hawks and owls when flying in open areas.}

the binaries. the duality of blue jays. their determination of flight and assertion of aggression while graceful beauty competes like a half-court three-point 3-point shot into a nest. i am blue king swath of graceful fear. understand this notion of innate ornithology. there were two splashes of beauty that preceded my determined pace almost as if guiding me—
directing me towards the
precarious pace almost as if
leading me towards the obligatory—
is there a sensible, quantifiable way out of this
latest disaster?
a crispness and clarity to my thoughts
and musings were sent aloft.
grew wholly present, acutely aware of my astringent yet comforting environment.
thoughts flooded me like a busting damn on standby. the blue jays
observed and contemplated preying on me.
again— the biting yet comforting environmental thoughts flooded me: past. present. future.
do blue jays think of future?
it was evident that this moment was paramount and necessary— yet i prey on
no one but inner-self commingling with the high trees.
i wrote that early while observing the low-to-high swoon then resumed my reading.
straying from the glum redundancy enabled me to keep focused.
blue jays have the inclination to chase the predatory wise owl.
this ornithological behavior requires deft focus to be sure.
what is important for me is maintaining a methodical, organized
train of thought.
blue binaries simulates the dichotomy of the beautiful blue jay.
soon, he will undoubtedly prey on me.
