Pigeons at the end of winter (Lyric) by mikejedw
Their molt is snowing from the brownstone ledge when, suddenly, they burst against the air and flutter into this week's milder wind. The flock of fat gray birds are thunder clouds; their wings, in chorus, like an echoed storm.

Up the ladder: I hope it hurts
Down the ladder: Castle Psyche'

The people who voted 3 for this poem are clearly idiots. Probably responsible for the most of the lame-ass juvenile shit on this site. At least this poem dealing with a tangible. I give it a 9. - Aduren

I agree with Aduren... you are a poet Mike no doubt for a second.

but this isn't up to your best .. the last two lines don't reach anywhere for me.. I love the first three!!! well, not quite .. I think it's the last line, it doesn't really resolve or say anything new. what a wonderful opening line especially though...
a pleasure to read you ..
