Image for the poem The Early Bird Gets Nothing

The Early Bird Gets Nothing

Birds eating from trash bags,
the most visually depressing scene
no worms for them
cigarette butts instead
take the trees in the name of paper
the birds have been evicted
lifted, from their rightful place
nature sees this atrocity
wiping us out slowly
disease is what we all deserve
blind eyes, twisted tongues
fuck the moon, kill the sun
dieing is for the living
the rest of us shall reap
what someone else sewed
