Chirp... not a bird.

Oh a good day interrupted by the chirp of a technical bird.
My word, in my home a small circular dome with battery
attached... evil contraption. Chirp, chirp in a circadian rhyme
disconnect the battery and it still peeps out a chime.

You are interrupting Joni Mitchell... furry sings the blues.

Bringing smoke and dreams... not allowed in this established place.

We have been hoodwinked to a placated place in a somewhere blues.

I want my harmonica, so I can blow my brains out.

We replace the battery, another small battle won in this odd post card existence.

I hear the blue jay, mocking bird, and crow for real. Screeches, trills, and giggles.

Techno birds warning of impending fire? Shut the fuck up.

Not again nor evermore

There is a great joy inside
welling in an outburst of tears,
beyond the blue horizon
upon a golden blur of tears.

What is this joy?
I do not know.

What are these tears?
I cannot say.

What is this place?
No clue today.

A fog around the tracks
rolling silent as thunder
a belief in what was what
and all that went asunder.

A simple question
asked a million times,
a riddle of wonder
in uncertain times.

Who are you now?
Asked the fog about,
Oh, I've certainly forgotten
said a waterspout.

It's been asked over and over
many times before...
I don't really know,
I'm not really sure,
and I won't question myself
anymore.
