Don’t Look Up!
You never know what may come down.
It’s a beautiful day and you’re out for a walk.
The sky is blue, the grass is green, and the bees are humming.
All’s right with the world. Or is it?
Don’t look up!
You’ve ignored me! I can see you’re starting to tilt your head.
Your eyes look heavenward.
Don’t say I didn’t warn you.
The sound of birdsong. The whirr of wings. And. ..
Bullseye!
Right in your eye.
Eww!!!! Birdsh*t.
On the bright side, it could have been worse. Here’s a little poem explaining what could have happened, written by that famous writer Anon.
Little Birdie flying high
dropped a message from the sky.
Said the farmer with a sigh
“Aren’t I glad my cows can’t fly!”
I wrote this spurred on by a shitty article (I’m joking) from Susie Kearley.
