Stalked Wherever I Walked

I can’t believe it happened to me again this morning. What have I done to warrant these attacks? I have tried kinder words, disguises, changing my route, just about everything but they always single me out. It must be something in my blood that makes me prey to these villains.

 

Stalked Wherever I Walked

First time it happened I was on the way to school

Each day it recurred like an unbroken rule

And 30 years since it started, I would learn

This strange occurrence will obstinately return

Have you ever been pursued and relentlessly stalked?

Ever got attacked by a bandit in black wherever you walked?

Resisting didn’t matter this relentless foe

Exterminated all safety wherever I would go  

Danger lurks around me, it is every where

Feverishly pecking my head, swooping from the air

Ridiculous as it may seem and that I even might

I am afraid of their intentions, these villains in flight

Every since I was a boy they would stalked me

Never giving up and always unfriendly

Dastardly intentions with an onslaught that never ends  

Shameless attacks from Black birds my once feathered friends

 

 

I once caught a Black bird and in an effort to tag it, it escaped with my string around its leg. It flew high up into a tree and got entangled, well out of my reached. It flew around uncontrollably trying to free itself but only made things worst by creating a noose around its neck. That bird hung pitifully outside my kitchen window and was visible from where we sat to eat. It was many days before it finally disappeared. My intentions, though misdirected were good back then. Today, I was attacked on my early morning walk but out of practice, I continue to show my love for birds an even now, I have a dove nesting in my patio at eye level.
