Is it not a decadent moment in human history
that we have come to prefer the sound of birds
over the sounds of each other?
Putting up the bird feeder
Spicy food that deters the squirrels
but attracts the birds who sing
Perhaps, I miss the songs from the city
and prefer the sound of humans
to the sound of birds.
