Ohno no, that’s in bad taste; really, Sharon Tate?

Birds hunted to extinction

                           he didnt play nicehe wasnt the kind  he also wasnt a birder he liked birds but he wasnt cuckoo for Coco Puffs

through no fault of his owninadvertently he found himself mixedup in an enthusiastic roiling nest who gratified each other spouting memorised avian facts this and that  they almost made him feel bad he had a Cornish hen for dinner the night before

             once upon a time his daughters thought it was crazy they had a whole little chicken to themselveslike when they ate smelt after smelt  they had whole fishies to themselves

it was a raucous nest

                       he thought thered be more feathers itd be softer lotsa twigs poking him in the ribs and armpits mildewed scraps of paper grass moss pine needles and leaves  

when they went off he let em riff

he was happy to sit still and listen to them

unlikely hed retain birds names their habitats or ranges

however he found it disturbing when they wouldnt answer the only question he asked

Yes?  What?

Ya heard me I read it a Smithsonian article  some male birds are polygamous

                                                                                  So  again  is there a difference between a redheaded acorn woodpecker and an acorn redheaded woodpecker

when they wereparticularly when he felt cornered  he obfuscatedredirected

                                                                                Are you high?

As a matter of fact I am

                         Ya think I could make it through a Friends of the Flock they hooked him with flockmuffled their mouths  made it sound like fuck without tweakingaltering my honed perceptions

                                                                                    Although although I have to admit I rememberstand back  give me some room he cleared his throatAHEM A cast cauldron kettle of birds of prey a chain of Bobolinks chainlinked songsters a chatter of Budgerigars common or shell parakeets a wake of Buzzards fussinfeastin on funereal carrion Save some soft bits for me a college conclave radiance Vatican of Cardinals a mewing of Catbirds a banditry of Ohbrother Mae West of Chickadees W Cs Cummin my little chickadee an  WHEWat long last    a peep of Chickens

they looked at himtheir mouths agape lookin like hungry chicks 

Stop stopstop  ya don shut your mouths Ill feed you a mealworm

                                                                       he was highnot stupid

besides that shit was fun  a murder of crow
