DREAM IN WHICH I APOLOGIZE TO THE BIRDS

who have been denied a tree semantics

who have been denied a sentence stop

who could just as well have been buffalo or ants

whose existence is insignificant in that sense

who must make something more of themselves also not birds

for whom there is weakness, exhaustion and disease

who are thus starting to understand the contextual use of despite

who are not conscious really

who are merely display just now are displaying

who are continuous but will not continue

those whom I collected objects are simple

whom I used for research pictures of facts

whom I forced into a small fragmented area the complex name

those whom I made
                      strings of words
                                                   featherless
