Michael Benkhen Poet I do not know?

The Man With a Bird's Nest On His Head

I do not need a twitter
or any of your tweets.

Your fancy social networks
are souly for the geeks.

Fore you see,
I have a bird's nest on my head
and I go a tweeting every single day.

When I walk, the birds are tweeting.
When I sleep, the birds are tweeting.
They are pecking at my face.

It's all worth it in the end;
to be the man with bird nests on his head,
being told to go away.

...But I wouldn't have it any other way
because without me, they'd be dead.

I found this because I recently drew a piece with a character with a bird's nest on his head, so I went 'net searching to see what others may have done. My art is at www.artwanted.com/chastxpoet. Look in the 2012 gallery. Thanks. Michael Benkhen August 3, 2012 at 10:51 PM That's quite the abstract style you have. It's highly interesting.
