How Come

You see all these birds
Flying around
But rarely see a dead one
On the ground.

Where do all the dead birds go?
Does anybody know?

I figure they must
Go up or down
So I keep looking
All over town.

    Sky above and sky below
    distracts, distorts
    the view of our
    onrushing hosts
    so quick to meet us
    so eager
    so like us
    so familiar

    (On finding a flock of dead birds under a bank of office windows.)
