Free Tee Wee
Been cranking out some crazy dreams
of prehistoric birds in flight
Six foot tall with bills like puffins
looking to roost for the night
One flew into a high line wire did a triple
and slammed to the ground
I stared in amazement as he got to his feet
What He did then would truly astound
Head down he charged in predating gear
To the place that my father stood
Quickly recast by the man that I Wed
Who then stepped out of sight as he should
Another one then caught the sight of me
Pursued me like honey and he was the bee
I ran hard for cover soon to arrive
Struggling to secure the door to the hive
And made it just in time
As his full bodied weight slammed into the door
Clawing he scratched with a deafening roar
I awoke to a silence sublime
Don't know why you need to know this
Just somehow feel you do
Sleep tight tonight don't let
monster birds bite and swallow you without a chew
