baby birds collapsed on concrete
i wonder if she gave them names
before they fell & became jelly
drenched in their own **** & shame
with limbs bent like accordions
after bursting from a broken egg
their infancy spread evenly
across the sidewalk's face.

& when the flies came floating in
to feast on bloated intestines
filled with food undigested
exploding out of rubber ribs
i wonder if the mother sits
watching from a skyward limb
mourning for her fallen kids
or if she's flirting with the worms
& already forgotten them.

Nature's Princess

Sleeping Behind The Roaring Redwood
Seeing The White Hare Sparkling In Its Naturehood

Laughing With The Solitude Wind That Howls By;
Starring At Dancing Butterfly Who Never Get Shy

See  The Creeps Are Smiling
By Seeing The Deer Crying

Are'nt You Getting Bored Dear Squirrel? But Don't Worry; The Nature's Dusk Is Quite Far From Funeral

Hey Look! The Earthworm Is Pootling Near My Feet
But Oh Poor! Baby Tortoise Is Already Behind It

Thankyou Little Cuckoo! For Melodies So Sweet!
And The Dusking Fireflies Letting The Earth Lit

With Such A Wonderful Heaven!
Counting Happiness On Fingers At More Than Eleven!
It's Me Who Lives Better Life Than You
The Nature's Princess! You'll Get Few!
