Bird is the Word

BIRD IS THE WORD
 
Sparrow sips water 
from sodden plastic I heart NY
shopping bag
The red and black
visible flat in the water
 
Bird culture hopping
like they do
striking me as armless
only beaks to pick up and peck
 
Apparently always seeking
the food not so much
each other
even in their social circles
 
Their bird feet 
with never a shoe
or a sock
exposed and scaly looking
talons like tiny knives
just in case
 
Sitting in all the high places
stretching a wing
or two
hiding in the bushes
contemplating flight
