No birds on the sky
They're all on the ground, pecking
at my dropped sandwich.

Cannot be too well applied
To mess made by birds.

To mess made by birds
Can be considered lucky
Once cleaned out of hair
Fate gives all of us three teachers, three friends, three enemies, and three great loves in our lives. But these twelve are always disguised, and we never know which one is which until we've loved them, left them, or fought them.

The burdock seeds need to be
Disposed of with care.

"Disposed of with care"
What an odd way to describe
A pet cat's burial
