even birds laugh

Dream city sleep eyes
blackness drives tired eyes;
ledges as high as sidewalks
are taught to us as cliffs of death.


2000 sparrows descend upon my backyard
squacking and laughing w/ spring, come in.


Th thought of plump red berries,
wintry plumage silver & white,
tarry away with the birds’ little minds
as I watch from my bedroom window

black streaks swift along the snow.

The winter was so cold & right;
snowflakes the size of my head
melt to black dirt and
the birds still laugh (see fuck pg poem).
