The Birdman of Alesund

The birds of Alesund descend 
To greet an old and trusted friend, 
An answer to their constant search, 
For food, safety and a welcoming perch, 
The birds of Alesund descend 
To greet an old and trusted friend.

Poetic Justice - Birdman of Easyville

The gavel slammed its judgement down
On my impassioned plea,
Doomed to run-on sentences
Served concurrently.
My term began an infinite jest,
Time after time, time without rest.
On and on, again and again,
Ad infinitum, days without end.
Illicit contraband stashed in my sock, 
Wearing a jumpsuit here on The Rock.
Sand in an hourglass keeps me in hock.
Forever and ever, and ever

Birdman Assesses His Position

listening with his hero heart
bird man waits his opportunity
understanding the beauty of timing
not caring about credit, but eager to save the day
because he loves people and he despises unjust meanness.

Birdman 

Sometimes we fly
Sometimes we fall
But if we don't  try
We learn nothing at all 

So buckle-up sunshine
Strap yourself in
Let's head for that sun
Where the atmosphere's thin 

If we aim for the highest
Fill our lungs and take flight
We can only be chased 
By the darkness of night 

For the thrill in the journey
And the stretching of

Birdman

Stoned in still water,
Osiris stares at me;
Wings sharp as shields,
Batter a subway overhead;
Somewhere a cadence
Floats like a blue rinse,
Your bird-eye catches a scent,
Chanel No.5,
Pokes it inside your brain,
A tongue lashes out,
Whips you stupid;
You fell for those plumes,
Had to have them,
Close-up,
An ultra-violet frenzy,
Claws into you - 
Does it hurt?

Birdseed is not sniffed at,
On cold Bay days;
And

The Birdman a Salute To Iron Mike Tyson

outside his window they hover over

through gallows of granduer to endure

 

great wisdom comes from above given to him

through temples of fire long lines alone

 

Tyson was used to providing

learn to take each new day in perspective

 

never let them leave you second guessing

I must clearly confess

 

The birdman was a dreamer

a no it all

Birdman

Bold Dewi Jones would leave his home
first thing every morning,
and trot him down to Towy Wood
just as day was dawning,
and there he filled his Tesco bag,
five pence from any store,
with chickweed celandine and seed
and other weeds galore.
Then he fed them to his finches
to peck at in the cage,
	while he ate his Kellog Cornflakes	
and read the

Dreamtime: Birdman

On a cliff high above the sea
Pitching china cups for tribal shootists.
Upon finishing, walking to the edge
To speak with the elders of these cliff dwellers.
Looking below, a most strange bird was
Ambling with others of his kind.
Introductions were made as my gaze
Fell upon one more strange than 
All the others.
His head, all in feathers, spoke with
Authority…averting
