My window is open and all I can hear are those birds. Chirping, chirping away. It never stops. I find myself mimicking their sounds. Like a broken record, stuck in my head. I turn the window fan on to drown out their noise. I still hear them, chirping. They are stuck in my head. I close the window of my smoke filled room. Puffing another cigarette in quite. Until I open the window again, I can't get them out of my head. So, I smoke and the fan drowns out their noise. My room is clear of smoke, but filled with birds.

Open Window
My window is open and all I can hear are those birds. Chirping, chirping away. It never stops. I find myself mimicking their sounds. Like a broken record, stuck in my head. I turn the window fan on to drown out their noise. I still hear them, chirping. They are stuck in my head. I close the window of my smoke filled room. Puffing another cigarette in quite. Until I open the window again, I can't get them out of my head. So, I smoke and the fan drowns out their noise. My room is clear of smoke, but filled with birds.
