she placed in the yard
brought too many birds.
birds of all feathers,
all sizes
and colors.
each taking a turn
at the green metal
box swaying
on the pole.
it was chaos.
confusion. bitterness
and hunger
like i'd never seen before.
it was game on
from the start.
and then it came to me.
this is who she was.
what she brings
to the table.
to the yard.
to my life.
