Everybody's A Critic
Oh, to pontificate
on parakeets and poetry
Of birds and words
Of posting and tweets
Of prose and bird beaks
Desk chairs and perches
Of cuttlebone and corn pone
Comments and peeps
Perusal of newspapers
In search of inspiration
Silly words, unruly rythme
seeds plucked from my lips
replacing newspaper
in bottom of cages
Little swings, tiny bells
Head bobs and nips
Beady little bird eyes
Watch, shine and glitter
My green and blue critics
My inspiration wreckers
Reading what I write…
They give in to titter
My boon companions
With little pointy peckers
