Men and Byrds

When I gazed upon the lavender SKY
The sun was there to get in my EYE 
Blinding my sight for a short time
As I stared toward SPACE
My thoughtz began to RACE
Then something flew by catching my eye
It was a Byrd gliding by……

A sight easy to look at, impossible to HOLD
Gliding so smoothly, the gesture so BOLD
It kinda remindz me of my relationships with men…….
Who are easy to look at but impossible to HOLD
Gliding thru life smoothly with gestures so BOLD

Lookin at those Byrdz, a lovely sight INDEED
Similar to men in many wayz though different BREED
I love lookin up at Byrdz & sometimes men INSTEAD
But many men like those Byrdz will crap on yo HEAD
