Trash Birds

[rowens]

Black wings, garbage bags, 
and cirrus clouds
wind around a white dwarf sun
like a carousel.


Caws, and jeers,
of wounded crows 
pierced by the stilted cry
of a perched eagle.


The garbage truck backs away
as trash birds lunge
on their meal.

That's a play of things that occurred to me reading this poem.

See the technical anomalies that occurred?

Those technical anomalies, or what I've come to call trash birds, bother me a lot when copying and pasting in the areas that have the font tools and so forth.

I often have to paste into a Quick Reply of some random thread before I can paste in, say, a Draft of mine elsewhere, if I'm pasting something I wrote elsewhere.
The Quick Reply box is where I have to paste some things and recopy, what a word, recopy, from there, here, to a toolbar box.
