Montage Meltdown
MONTAGE MELTDOWN
Giant killer bird in death struggle with freak girl-flower.
Bird combs child’s hair, child smoothes bird feather.
Concrete bird-statue being pushed over by tot-vandal pest.
Awarded last place in Tidy Garden Contest .
Child and her pet swallowed by garden weeds.
Legless girl clutches bird for balance needs.
Leg-eating flowers attack girl, leave bird intact.
Day Of The Triffids, but with droopy daisies in fact.

NOTE
These lines are in the style of newspaper headlines, all possible
interpretations of the montage.
