This entire poem (for me) consists of two lines:
if the birds all fall from the sky
and children bury them in mason jars,
but the rest of it had no new images and no new ideas for me. I've heard it all before. I guess I'm getting old and after fifty years of hearing people talk about the death of the earth, I'm looking at new questions that this poem does not address.
But those two lines are great. I really like those two lines.
