Birds

There's a flock of birds
Screaming to be heard
Of constantly growing size!
They have light blueish feathers
And peanut-sized brains!
They are always looking for a fight!
There's a wake of woke vultures
Waiting for a word
Inclined to interpret as hateful!
They'll take all you give
But if you step out of line
Don't expect them
To ever be grateful!

These birds don't feel
Real compassion
They are just starving for attention
They don't stand up for the defenceless
They want more validation
With their misshapen wings
They stay close to the ground
And as they'll never fly as high as us
They try to bring us down!

There's a swarm of birds
Claiming to be hurt
By a thing a stranger said!
They don't care about context
They lust for revenge!
They just want to see us dead!
Plump parrots proclaim pandemonium
The committee craves control
They send out the crows
For the murder
There is no hope for parole!

These birds, they seem so harmless!
Their deeds appear so
Truly motivated by goodwill
But while they're smiling at us
They're plotting our destruction
Preparing for the kill!

We are facing new dark ages
All branches are covered with birds!
They are watching us
With judging eyes
To see what punishment we deserve
It was a major mistake
To open the gates
And give these birds a voice!
Because with too many voices
And all scream at once
All that remains is
Unbearable noise!

This audacity
This lack of self awareness
This hypocrisy
This frivolous presumptuousness
This maliciousness
This total lack of empathy
This self-righteousness
Who are you to judge us?

These birds don't feel
Real compassion
They are just starving for attention
They don't stand up for the defenceless
They want more validation
With their misshapen wings
They stay close to the ground
And as they'll never fly as high as us
They try to bring us down!
