ODE TO WOUNDEDBIRD
SHE JUMPS INTO THREADS WITH SAME OLD LINES
NEVER ANYTHING NEW TO ADD
HER LEVEL TO RESPOND QIUTE LOW
HER ABILITY TO ATTACK AN IDEA SO SO.
EVERY TIME SHE RUNS HER MOUTH
EVERY STATEMENT SHE MAKES
I KNOW THE FUCK-UP FAIRY HAS VISITED AGAIN.

Oh woundedbird when I think on thee,
Thou doth make lies sound like veracities.
Oh crass, crass!
Locker of caps!
Forsooth how the worm doth turn,
Thy illness how it doth burn...

Then I give an inward sigh..
Apply the paper tenderly to cheek.
Flush the loo, and wash my hands.
Noting with irony at the fore,
Twas only shit..and nothing more.

We gather here each day
to read our favourite thread
only to see it hijacked by
the eater of crumbled bread

Thread crasher, bible basher -
WoundedBird is she.
There in the middle of all the normal posts
a sermon from the aviary

Is she pious and prayerful?
Or has she gone insane?
Or is it really just P-Angel
Messing with all our brains?

What wound troubles you, oh Bird?
Are you bruised or bleeding or sore?
Why is caps lock always on?
Can't reach that button with your broken claw?

I'm never alone in cyberspace
Yea as I wander through DXP,
for there in the distance thy pecking
at the keyboard comforts me

^ LMAO All expense paid tour of woundeds deep basement lair. You got to take home a black widow as a token reminder of your stay. That and a bottle of salve to relieve the chafing from being shackled to the wall.
