Pooka Business
Our principal goal is to be all things to all men. Words. Spittle. Joy above all things. Look, and touch sometimes, all with clean fingers please. Veet for the tongue. Press studs for the abdomen. Gravy for the choir. Banjos for the genitals. Pooka Delaval.
Visions of Delaval (see Pookafield below) is the pictorial side of things. Good stuff.
Hotboxx is a radio show that streams from the heart of the pookasphere, bringing japes aplenty, and fine tunes to boot.
Counter Hive (see Pookafield again) charts the endless undulations over the years of the campaign against the insidious Human Advance (H.A.).

ragged and beautiful
an ant flutters
near a trap
I think this one is flawed.
it might a queen ant?
the flying fly
passes towards the window
brave, green
also flawed, but nicely so.
the egg-bound dragonfly
glides beside the flower
far from a pond
egg-bound?
a fragile ant
levitates beside the garden
far from the garden
This on i think is very spiritual and deep. It reminded me of early Buddhist mantras.
Just one more...
old and flying
a butterfly crawls
beside a window
What a strange concept and what a strange concept for a website. It, perhaps, needs a little fine-tuning.
This may be the primary conclusion from Your post and it's branches.
