Woodpigeon

I see a woodpigeon in the garden

not thinking of death

just plodding amongst the stones

looking for seeds to eat

but he'll die too

and all his friends

who gather every morning

for the ritual of watching me

throw sunflower hearts onto the lawn

for them to eat


eat while you can guys

though you're not thinking of death

it's thinking of you
