Blue jays squawk
Makes discordant song
Jars us awake
When sun arises
Rooster is calling
Proving we're denying
Jesus all over again
Self righteous peacock
Screaming in midst of a strut
Beautiful and he knows it
Damnable thing
Near inaudible chatter
Of chickadees flocking
Twitching eyes flicker
They know you are sinning
Murder of crows gather
On bare limbs of winter
Like black robed judges
Conferring to rule
High perched hawk
Whistles cries from afar
Who welcomed you to witness our music?
Sink back into sleeping once more
