Nesting

I am surrounded
by extreme birds.

A baby robin
stuck its head out

like six inches
from its nest

and screamed.

One leaped off
of a two story building

like it was going
to commit suicide

but it opened
its wings an inch

from the ground
like Bat Boy

and lit the earth on fire.

At night, I get all
mummy in the sack and

I can hear them
from beneath the sheets,

punching holes in the darkness.
